I can't speak about 50 yards, because I don't shoot my hand guns at that distance (actually I tried it with a semi-auto, once)....but, my K-frame Smith does VERY well with 3.7 grains of Bullseye, behind a 158 grain cast SWC. Literally, it will produce "one ragged hole" groups, if I could shoot that well consistently, out to about 15 - 20 yards (as far out as I normally shoot).
