How accurate do you want the level over that distance? The cheap ones
quote something like 1mm/m. 200' = 61m you could be 61mm out...

You'll probably have fun in day light but in poor light or at night
with a bit white card to follow the spot and someone to (carefully)
adjust the level as you move away to the far end it shouldn't be a
problem.
