    This question opens a big can of worms.
    A fully zeroed and validated rifle and then using the appropriate environmental data into a quality ballistic app with a chambering with enough punch for starters.
    Then you have your own shooter ability.
    Then there is wind.
    I'm very comfortable out to 600m in not to bad conditions and in perfect conditions with my big banger 1100m.
    But then to qualify that I do a lot of long range target shooting as have my own steel range and another 2 close by that we use.

    I have total faith in my weapons systems and ballistic solvers so then I just have to decide is it an ethical shot on the day.
    My 2 cents
