Works great on my .22 khornet. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them out to 250 or 300 for sure.

My 3200 10x is mounted with 1 inch rings and I shoot out to 200 yards comfortably. Close shots like 25 yards are quite out of focus.
I don't own one, but many shooters on a budget use them quite successfully at long range. Not sure how many moa elevation adjustment they have. Burris rings with the plastic inserts would allow you to zero it near the bottom of its range and have the ability to adjust out to quite far.
I am using one to shoot at 300 and 500 m with a Remington LE 700. It is bang on at 300 and I just go down two mildots and it is right on at 500m. There was an article not too long ago in an AR magazine that demonstrated one that was used on a Barrett .50 cal. They were quite impressed with it and were shooting much further than I do. I have had no problems with it on my Remington and my son bought one as well for his .308 tactical because of the success with mine. It has been on for about two years now and I haven't had any issues with it. I know you can get better scopes but they are good value for the money IMO.

I have one on a 300 RUM 700P that I use out to 700 meters so far. - dan
700m is pretty good for the price...imo, might have to pick one up soon before something really weird happens and they are discontinued or something with my luck...lol
I have 3... a 4-12x40 on my .223 Rem 700 SPS "Varmint" and a 5-15x40 on my .204 Ruger M77 MkII "Varmint" and a 3-9x40 on my .308 Savage model 12fv "Varmint".
All are great scopes with crystal clear optics and I've shot out to 275 yrds with no problems. Took a coyote at 275 yrds with the .308.
As a matter of fact I'm looking for another 3200 for my Marlin XS7.

My scopes are for specific rifles. The .223 and .204 are for longer shots on gophers, 200 to 250 yrds for the .204 and 250 to 300 for the .223, and the .308 is zeroed for 200 yrds on deer.
I usually use my scopes on 3/4 to full power so I can't really say if theres any difference.
I used to have an Elite 3200 10X on my AR15 that I use for precision matches. These matches run from 300 to 800y/m. The Elite 3200 worked just fine for this purpose for many years. I have since updated my rifle with a Bushnell 4200 6-24X42 mildot and am also very pleased with that scope.
