Slightly more accurate than throwing a rock. These were large diameter smoothbore firearms- internal barrel diameter was not always consistent. 25 FEET would be a usable range.

PS- I have flintlock and cap lock muzzleloading pistols that are EXREMELY accurate at 50 YARDS- but those are rifled, and from a much later period.

What is the worst gun ever made you think it is a muzzle loaded pistol with no rifling uses a round lead ball and black powder will it be wheelock or machlock?

IF theonly gun was a smoothbore matchlock pistol, you would think it was a pretty good gun. The WORST gun would have to be a gun that was unsafe to fire- any kind, any make, any caliber. If the gun is not safe to fire, then you have a pretty poorly designed club.If I had to choose between wheelock and matchlock I would put the matchlock at the bottom of the list only because of reliability, other than that I would agree with the first answer
