IIRC, it's 100 or 150. suppose it could be as short as 75, but that seems a bit low.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

They'll shoot at you as long as you are within 150km from the victims position.

Is it from the victims position or from the object they are guarding?

WTH?? All these are WRONG.

Sentry gun range is 150km from gun to you (You being the gent with GCC)

And a sudden plunge in the sullen swell. Ten fathoms deep on the road to hell.

Call it 155km to be safe

No more than that though

Close, it is 150km from the object being guarded. (Gate, station, etc)

Outside 150km from the object, the guns will still yellowbox you, but no longer fire.
