The HS-805MG 'monster' servo is a beefier version of the popular HS-805BB servo. The metal geartrain makes the HS-805MG an excellent candidate for steering 1/5 Scale vehcles and driving control surfaces on large scale models. The large case size allows room inside for a beefy motor, huge gears and electronics capable of handling high current conditions.
The answer to this question is partially dependent on what you are using to control the servo.

With an Average Radio System:
94°
Your average transmitter and receiver will output a relatively narrow PWM signal range.
Radio System + Travel Tuner:
199°
Adding a Servo Travel Tuner to your radio system setup will allow you to achieve wide PWM signal ranges.
Wide Signal Controllers:
199°
Controllers such as the Actobotics® Servo Controller, Arduinos, and Raspberry Pi servo hats can usually send a wide signal.
