I have heard of some outstanding feats by gymnasts, including very light females.
27, or anything over 20, is still pretty good.
Wodonga YMCA test one exercise for members every few months. This month chins, previously kettlebells to shoulder height with 24 kg (18kg for females) and reps on 50% of bodyweight bench press another month.
dude thur not even pullups thur chin ups and when I was in jail I was doing 20 for 3 sets ive seen guys do heaps on youtube theres a video of a guy doing 50 ACTUAL pull ups
My brother did Year 11 in Germany as part of an exchange program. PE was a compulsory subject and as part of the assessment, all students had to achieve certain athletic and gymnastic milestones. If I remember correctly, to get an A, you had to achieve 20 pullups.
The dude who holds a world record for weighted pull ups (at over 400lbs, I forget the number) can do 33 I believe at around 200lbs bodyweight. He can also do a strict 1 handed pull up.
So if you can do 30 at 90kg-100kg you're fucking strong, back wise.
My best was 33 chins at 75kg BW (a few years ago now)
23 pullups at 80kg
1 one arm chin at 80kg
Don't do that many these days. PSA: neutral grip is much better for shoulders/elbows. They are harder than underhand but easier than wide grip overhand IMO.
