I've done alot of slinging, and your accurate range is spot on, 40m. But for distance I can get out to 100m with a stone and maybe twice that with lead shot (its hard for me to judge those longer distances).
From my postings on other sling forums, my ranges seem reasonable.
We've found that a light javelin can be thrown 20m, and a heavy pilum 10m-15m.
