I would think staying inside a pie plate would not be to big a problem with a good ballistic reticule scope to 250/300 yards. People that work on those distances are shooting 400 yards. One person in particlular Spaniel had set up his Omega with a tactical scope and has harvested deer that far out. But, I think it takes a special person with some very good skills to get that job done. I would not even try it -well yes I would if I were shooting my 300 win mag - but not with a ML...

The other thing you have to remember, you might not have a lot of energy left at that type of range...
