    Depends on how good of a shot you are and how much you practice and hone your shooting skills.

    Open sites are good for up close and personal hunting. If you scope the RB480 you can reach out to at least 75 yards and perhaps farther if you do your part.

    The cartridge in able hands is good to about 150yds.

    How far you can utilize it is dependent on how much work you will put into learning the capabilities of your gun.

    I personally limit myself to ~50yds with an iron sighted revolver and not much past 100yds with a scoped revolver.
