Lol.. ya, it's backstop/trap dependant.

A couple posts have stated that rifles don’t present much of a challenge at ten yards. I‘m quite sure that if you start down the path of the ten meter shooting discipline you will find plenty of challenge. You don’t need a fancy expensive air rifle. I have a lot of fun with my Beeman AR2078B (less than $200) as well as my FWB 601.

Agree and also MOA for group size is a mere .1” at 10 yards (approx.) There are so many here poo-pooing shooting at close distances because they are happy just hitting the corner of a gong at 50-100 yards. Hitting exact center bullseye with groups under MOA at close distances is pretty challenging. I shoot at 7 yards in my basement with groups consistently under .07” center to center.

if limited to the garage, I'd go CO2 and the hammerli 850 magnum would be low powered enough to enhance safety in such a confined space.

I second the Hammerli. The AR20 is perfect for indoor use. Shoot it all week on one fill up.

The main concern with garage shooting is a good backstop to prevent ricochets. Nothing like hearing a pellet fly past your ear.

WTF...
The distance is all relevant.
Just remember, the shorter the distance, the smaller the target or bullseye should be. Pretty simple really.
8 or 10 yards shooting distance, a 1/2" or 3/4" dia. bullseye.

I shoot my pistols in my shop at 10M. A Diana Bandit and Benjamin P-Rod. Lots of fun and plenty accurate to shoot 1/4” bullseye targets for their entry level cost.
