Default RE: How many yards is this gun good up too?

The gun? Probobly about 150-175 (from a bench), 125 is more realistic from an " offhand" shooting position. Both of these theoretical numbers are assuming the use of a scope. Otherwise, with no scope and factory sights-100.

But that is ONLY with THE RIGHT LOADS, some SERIOUS practice sessions, some shoulder bruising and commitment.

Question really is how good ARE YOU?

Steady now.

I' d have to shoot it from a bench to know for sure. Even the same brand and model can vary widely accuracy wise. As a general rule I' ll go along with uncle matt' s numbers.
