If a 22LR is fired at about a 45 degree angle from a rifle, it will travel about 7700 ft. However, ACCURATE fire is less- about 150 yards- beyond that, the bullet is losing speed quite rapidly, and bullet drop becomes significant.

My favorite .22 Rifle in my cabinet is a Marlin Model 981t.I have a 3-12x40 Tasco Pronghorn mounted to a Weaver Base,and no modifications to the actual rifle at all.With American Eagle 40gr solids,I plink .22 shells at a hundred yards(300 feet measured)with ease adding about 2" of elevation and accounting for crosswinds.The .22 is capable of much more than that,but I only have a 12x zoom scope.My best group with that rifle at a hundred was one slightly ragged 5 shot hole with the AE 40grainers.Not bad for a stock rifle.I plink cans at a hundred accurately with my 69 Ruger Mark 1 Bully,stock...Dont knock the .22...
