I’d like to know what are the black Bulls Eye diameters for iron sights (Garand, M1 carbine, etc) at the following distances.
25 yards
50 yards
100 yards——6.375”
200 yards
Maybe even official target numbers.
Thank you

I believe the black on a Hi Power Service Rifle target subtends 6.5 MOA.

Not the scoring rings, the black.
 
Look up rifle targets, then NRA official targets. I have ihe info, but I'm not on my desktop.
 
https://www.creedmoorsports.com SR-1 Military 200 yard reduced to 100 yard shows the black diameter as 6.375" (6.375" @ 100 yards ~= 6.3/8 MOA)

I personally like the front sight on a M1917 or newer USGI rifle to subtend the same angle as the target black diameter subtends.

This is from an old NRA HI power rulebook. Same info is available for under 100 yds for pistol shooting, look in the NRA Pistol rules:

High power rifle shooting at the full regulation distances requires a range
with firing lines at 200, 300 and 600 (or 500) yards.

Every official NRA stage or course of fire normally conducted at 200, 300, or
600 yards can be run at 100 yards on NRA official reduced targets. The SR-1
target simulates the 200 yard target; the SR-21 is the 100 yard equivalent of
the 300 yard target and the MR-31 gives the same appearance at 100 yards as the
normal 600 yard target does at the full distance.

Because of their smaller size, the reduced targets are well adapted to being
hung on stationary frames. Because of the short distances involved, it is
practicable to walk down to the targets after each string and remove them for
scoring elsewhere or to score then on the frames. The use of stationary target
frames avoids the complications that sometimes arise when the number of
shooters on the line isn't equal to the number of target operators in the pits.

Reduced 300 and 600 yard targets are also available for firing at 200 yards.
The NRA can provide a list of target sources, including reduced targets.
