Assuming you mean with a steady rest, using my STW on deer and elk, I try to limit myself to 400 yards. I'm sure I could pull off a longer shot, but there is too much margin of error. Like Jack, I also use a rangefinder. They are the only way for long shots.
Now on smaller critters, like prarie dogs, I try to limit myself to around 500 yards.
