200yds< I can't do that either...... i said 100yds w/scope and the rifle is only limited by ME. I use mine for deer hunting and have also taken a moose w/it. Mild recoil is an understatement. My wife has put her name on it and I'm shooting deer w/.30-06 (a little overgun for my liking even for CDN whttail) I shoot 140gr pills and have never had any game animal run over 50yds, actually of the 12 or 13 game animals taken w/it only 2 have gone anywhere. Those 140's are over an inch long and penetrate like MAD
