A typical post picks up 2.5K interactions against 5.2M followers, an engagement rate of 0.049%. Measured over 59 original posts, its engagement rate beats 74% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 362K times each, and 0.7% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.98% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 19:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 59 posts sampled, 98% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 142K interactions, about 56x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #golf, #gozips, #journalism.

Compared with accounts its own size

Shooter McGavin's engagement rate beats 74% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 47% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,654 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,977 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

What is Shooter McGavin's engagement rate on X?
Shooter McGavin (@ShooterMcGavin) has an engagement rate of 0.049%, based on the median interactions across 59 original posts from the last 30 days against 5,182,940 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.049%, Shooter McGavin sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,654 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @ShooterMcGavin have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 74% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @ShooterMcGavin post?
Most posts go out around 19:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.87 posts per day across the measured window.
