From my .22 Mag days, it's perfect on Groundhogs out to about 100 yards.
I second that.
Compared to other rounds with velocity of 2000fps and above, it's quieter, and has plenty of energy in the 40gr bullet. I've shot tough racoons at over 50 yards, and got nothing but humane kills.
I have an Anchutz bolt action in WMR. It easily shoots quarter-sized groups at 50 yards, and silver dollar sized at 100. (that's a hair over 1 MOA) So I think the round is inherently accurate. It may depend on ammunition brand, but probably not.
