If your pattern holds, which it should, out to 50 yds.  I believe you lose about 100 pellets per 10 yds past 40.

Shoot it at 50 and see what it does. I haven't patterned the 7's past forty so I can't give you a concrete number on the pellet loss. However I have shot the 2.25 oz #6's at 50. The numbers from my 835 went from the mid 220's @ 40 to around 110 or so @ 50.

If I had a dollar for every gobbler I thought I fooled I'd be well off!

I'm confident the #7s will kill at 60.
Killed one at 52 yards last year with them and so have many others here.
Your problem is going to be if the pattern holds up. Which I doubt.
