In modern SV sets you see rough guides like a Double Rare around 1 in 5 packs, an Illustration Rare around 1 in 12, an Ultra Rare around 1 in 15, a Special Illustration Rare around 1 in 90, and Hyper Rares in the 1 in 300 to 700 range, and any one specific card runs far longer than its rarity band suggests
As an aside, the Signets are significantly worse being that much more awkward to use immediately
