    These days, it has to be inside 400 in good conditions. Im not shooting enough to be confident of making it all come together past there.
    Also I don't have $ invested in the guns or the time to practice I guess.
    I believe anyone can shoot that far if they are prepared to put the time and $ into it if that's what they want to do.
    There's some gun builders around like Kiwi Greg that specialize in making awesome rigs if it's your thing.
