Maximum range- or maximum EFFECTIVE range? Depending on the rifle, some have a maxium range of more than 5 miles, and an effective range of around 1500 meters. However, there is no one set range- will depend on the rifle, caliber- and the shooter.

During Viet Nam (1967) we were allowed to use a personal sniper weapon in Special Forces. I selected a Springfield 1906, World War II, sporterized with a 9X variable scope, a 7 lan twist bolt action rifle that I could hit a bottle cap at 1,000 yards with. We used competition rounds that had a little more powder than the normal rould with 180 grain bullet. As the person above said, it depends on the skill of the shooter and the rifle itself. Hopes this helps a little.
