Default shooting at 50 yards

ok, let's not be too modest, I'm a good shot at 18 yards and 25 yards, shooting an average of 9.4 on a fita target with my hunting rig.
At 30 yards I still have an average of 9.2 but I shot a short metric tournament which goes out to 50 yards ( actually meters ) my arrows go all over the place.
No real line in the errors I make, the arrows go in every direction inbetween the red and the yellow ring.
Any tips guys ? I have several arrows that don't make the same trajectory on this kind of distance, while at 25 meters they hit bull's eye.
No wind at the time of shooting.
Set up; 82nd at 28" with 57,5 #
FMJ's 400 with 125gr bulletpoints
Qad Ultra hunter rest

I know for most 50 yards is a "no go" shot but I like to know that I can shoot these kind of distances. Because 40 yards is almost 50 yards and I don't like to have doubts when I'm aiming at an animal.
