    I've got s similar rifle. It had a 3-9x40 VX2 on it. I used that out to 400 yards with 130 Barnes projectiles.
    On a Sika hunt I had a shot at a stag at 450 and for me that was too far with that scope. I've since upgraded to a VXi 4-14 with a CDS, with a softer projectile I reckon it should be good out to 500 for me.
    Others probably further...
