What is the highest caliber that this can take at a distance?

I've only used .22 cal. I think anything larger would keep the arms from staying in the upright position, I think they would just bounce back down. The metal itself seems sturdy enough but the design would limit it to nothing much heavier then possibly .22 Mag.

I do not believe that this gun is that accurate at such a distance. I have only used it within 24" range.

I see no problem. I would use a higher power version(6X16 or higher) since your range will be a lot further than an air rifle.

Accuracy is great, considering that it's a break barrel. I've been able to stay on target at 100 yards, outdoors with the wind. 4 - 5 inch groups. I use Crossman domed or hollowpoint pellets.

YES! It can also be used slug shotguns and up to .460 Weatherby magnums, maybe even .50BMG. The calibration is set using a sight in distance of 50, 100 or 200 yards(meters) and bullet drop.

Gerard's answer is spot on. If you're using this for hunting, although it can be shot accurately out to 60 - 100 yards, it is probably not a good idea to try to take an animal at those extreme ranges as there's the possibility of only wounding the animal and not killing it.If you're just curious how far the bolt would fly if you're going for maximum distance, it'll easily go a few hundred yards, so do NOT fire it in the air. You have no idea where it'll come down.

Overkill. I use mine on a model 700 Remington tactical in .308. 5-600 yard range.

a 7.62 might be a little much unless you are very far away. I use mine with pistols but it is very durable and will last a lifetime with proper care.

I have mine sighted in out to 60 yards and it is very accurate at that range, so you may be able to shoot further but I have no need to.

That's all up to you as a shooter knowing your weapon and ammo. You can dope the scope to shoot 1000 yards of your gun and ammo can do it. From a realistic standpoint, I was shooting 150 fmj hand loads at 2060 fps to 300 yard without doping and only using the 3rd circle down on the reticle. I haven't taken it beyond that but it will extend way beyond 300

Since there are no mil dots I would not suggest it for long distances. I had it on my AR pistol and it was crazy accurate though.

I shoot 8 inch steel with the P-223 on a 16 inch Bushmaster Patrolman carbine at 300 yards easily...Haven't tried it further than that yet. Get the "Spot On" software for your phone as it works very well. You can also get repeatable results dialing in your elevation and just using crosshairs instead of the software. Retired Military here....Would have loved to have had this on my AR's while in service!

Not real far ! If you want a longer range buy one that delivers a higher feet per second rating. Most of the ads state the feet per second speed at the muzzle. Faster speed equals more distance.

In .177 cal it is supersonic with light pellets. if you are looking for something for backyard plinking get a rifle with a velocity of about 700-900 f.p.s.

It will pull almost any caliber, but I recommend using a shell holder for that caliber rather than the collet holders that come with it.

Sure. I've a similar one mounted on a 308 rifle. I've made shots to 800 meter quite well

I can only speak for shooting at 100 yards. Haven't taken it past that, I have no range around me that offers 300 yards.
