15. Not freehand.
With a bench-rested Savage model 12 (big, heavy varmint rifle) I can sometimes put several rounds in one hole at 100 yrds. (.223)

With a CZ .22LR bench-rested, I get one ragged hole at 50 yds. or mostly within the 3" target at 100.

With the Beretta carbine or the Marlin 1894c shooting .38 I usually hit the 5" target at 50 yds. freehand. With the Marlin shooting .357 mag. from a rest, I get a little better than that at 100 yds.

Sadly, the weather and daylight limitations mean I shoot pistols more often than rifles.
