What is the Maximum distance a pellet can fly from a magnum pellet rifle?

I know that #6 shot out of a 12 gauge can go about 300 yards and that a .22 Long Rifle can go about 1000 yards.

So how far with a pellet rifle? The reason I want to know is because I use them close to houses.

So how far is far enough to be out of maximum range?
 
Best guess??

A few of the better pneumatics equal or surpass the .22LR. The box of .22LR I'm looking at says 1 1/2 mile. YMMV.

A Barnes pneumatic .32 will do a 100 gr projectile at 900fps, and a .56 cal 300 grain bullet at a "claimed"(and I have little reason to doubt)850fps.

http://www.airguns.net would probably be a better place to ask.
 
I have a crosman 2100 in .177 and it shoots about 725 fps, in the owners manual it says, can be dangerous up to 475 yards so you can kinda use this as a guideline hope this helps.
