Easily capable of 400 yd shots and will more than drop a human. And best part is they are inexpensive. Retail less than 650, come with heavy carbine length barrels, accustock and accutrigger. You could have one scoped and shooting for less than a grand. And they are SUB MOA with good handloads.
JLA will the gun do that well with standard military ammo or do you need special commercial or hand loaded ammo?

Also I am no expert but that seems like a long way for a 55/65gn bullet. I guess I need to look up some data on that.

That seems like it would sure be an easy gun to work with.
