Any idea of the carry distance of one of those 1000-1200 fps super alloy pellets fired at a 45* angle?

It all depends on the velocity and ballistic co-efficient. A lead pellet may travel 4-600+ yards. See the bottom of the following thread:

Sounds like someone broke a window, or worse.

No windows or worse. Not looking for accuracy at any yardage.
Just wondering how far a .177 super alloy pellet at 1000-1200 fps would carry.
Guess there are no one in here than caan answer that question.
