Default Range and accuracy

When you guys determine range to target, either by periscope or UZO, what level of accuracy do you expect, and what do you settle for? What I'm looking for is a cue on what errors one can expect, what is decent, what is poor and what is unrealisticly good, when determining range.

I understand accuracy depends on distance to target, among several other factors but let's assume some standard ranges, 1000m, 3000m and 6000m. Visibility not a factor.

What will you accept for error in each of these 3 cases?

Last, just to add some context to this:
How often do you hit the point you aimed at, within say, plus/minus 20 meters as opposed to how often do you hit more than 20 meters from the point you aimed at?
