This is just my opinion, but I zero'ed my 995 at 100 yds using a red dot. Seemed like a good overall range to shoot for.

Cant tell you that, my range goes only to 100 yds.

I suppose it would depend on how good you are about properly aiming to compensate for bullet drop.

I would hazzard a guess that 150 yds would not be out of the question.

The rifle would be good for shooting game if things ever go bad and we all have to feed ourselves.

Shotgun is the best weapon for close up self defense as far as a long weapon goes IMO
