Would it be best to keep it inside 80 yards, or does it work well for you over 80 yards too?  

Test it out. 

Sorry to say, but the club will interact differently for each person depending on their swing. On full swing shots, its more about other things than the bounce. 

I wouldn't be surprised if I could hit a sand wedge, with that bounce profile, the same distance as my sand wedge. So, anything inside 115 yards probably.

Do you ever hit a "pitch" shot with a 7I? Maybe, I guess? Sometimes if the ball is sitting up in the rough I'll do something semi-pitch-like, and the ball can go pretty far (while still going pretty high).

Look, every shot exists on a continuum, or a spectrum, from a super-leading-edge style, very-forward-shaft-lean type chip or punch shot to the most laid open thrown wrists clubhead-passing-the-hands-early flop shot.

So who could say?
