I'd be comfortable to 150 with a load that shoots well - at 200 w/ a 240gr you are going to drop around 16" - that's a little more than I care to deal with in a hunting situation.

What Dave said. They are great little rifles though.

Are you guys talking an=bout the Handi-rifle set-up? Does anyone know what kind of accuracy to expect with those? I have been thinking about one myself.

My brother has a Handi-Rifle in .223 that, after a much needed trigger job, is a tack driver! I wouldn't be afraid to reccommend one to anybody!

The 44 is an easy 150 yd round in a rifle. Optimal zero is 125 yds. This means about 3 inches low at 150. I don't know about 200. Depends upon the load. If you really want to shoot 200 yds with this round, then adjust your zero for longer shots (150 yd zero) and compensate for closer shots.
