I never went too far with upgrades in the VSR-10's, so I can't honestly comment on long range shots, but I know that there are people who combine heavy BB's and an upgraded gun with some patience and are quite successful with the bolt action guns.
The range is certainly possible, but I'm not sure how much of the extra range is useful because I don't know when the BB's lose stability.
I'm not a nay-sayer though, I just don't actually know.
So, in general, it's been my experience that most people who use the bolt action rifles are carrying them for atmosphere, and are willing to accept the limitations of the guns and enjoy them for what they are.
But there are definitely a few people out there who have really pushed their rifles to the limit. I guess it depends how far you want to go.
