I tested the max range of 3x modded Nerf N-Strike blasters and 1x Nerf Vortex Blaster, i've done all the usual mods to the N-Strike range such as AR removal, sealed barrels and padded plungers but the Vortex blaster is stock, they were all tested flat and 30deg elevation, results are pictured below.

It would be interesting to see what results other people have.

Great job making a graphic and all, but why?

Are the measurements that you show on the graph the flat ranges, or the angled ranges. Flat ranges are really the only usable measurement.

Your awful chart distracts me from any point you were trying to make.

While I'm not sure what his 'point' was, I'm curious, what software did you use to make the graph?

The problem I have with this is that there are so many variables that go into a blaster in its stock form, let alone when modding them. You could have a weak blaster already or a really good one, then do a half assed job or modding perfection. If I modded another Berserker I am sure if would turn out at least slightly different, and that is the same. Done by the same person. Experience, tools, and a bit of luck is the difference in pro quality and parts.

I don't always remember the past, but when I do I prefer it to be multiple choice.

Unfortunately, I do not see any sort of productive discussion that can come from this thread.

For starters, we already erotically massage "which blaster is best" threads, and this could be taken as evidence for misinformed arguments.
