buy a few types of varmint ammo and see which shoots the best for your gun. That setup is more then capable of 400 yard shots its just a matter if you and your skills are up to the task.

o trust me im capable of shooting that far if something is out there. I actually dont really see any skill in shooting if you have a good rest. anyone should be able to do it especially with a scope!

I wait for it to close the distance and come to my call and then when it gets to 200 I put the crosshair dead on and squeeze

Dead on! That is of course after adjusting windage and elevation. ;)
