Extent, scope (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ambit

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'extent' is the first definition.
(ambit is a kind of extent)

'scope' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for ambit that I've seen before include "Circuit, compass" , "Range, scope" , "Circumference" , "Scope, extent, or bounds of something" , "Scope or confines" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
