Is hitting a target 1 out of 5 rounds at 100 yards with a bolt action scoped rifle good for a rookie shooter?

Answer 1

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

Respectfully, no.
I just shot my first match with a .22 rifle. Hit the target 18 out of 20 shots via iron sights. I have been shooting for about 4 months and shooting the rifle for 3 weeks. Never shot the rifle beyond 75 feet at the indoor range.
Should be easy to hit the target with a scoped rifle.
Work on your trigger control. I work on that every time at the range.
Good Luck
