It depends on conditions. If the animal is well lit and standing broadside, it helps. If you have a good solid rest it helps. If you compensate for crosswinds and the shot angle, even better. You need to know your trajectory. Sometimes a deer looks huge at that distance, and sometimes not.Peep sights are a must at long range. My longest shot on a buck was 212 yards. I aimed for the top of his spine, and compensated 12" to the right for a gusty crosswind. Shot dropped right into the lungs. I shoot 250 grain XTP's with 100 grains of Pyrodex pellets. Most of my shots have been less than 100 yards.
It doesn't take much wind to drift a muzzy shot 12" at 200y.
