barrel length only mariginally affects range, and in most cases where the barrel length doesnt match the cylinder displacment, it negativley affects it. air seal (nozzle, hopup ect) and power (spring, motor, battery) all work in synergy together to produce range. if your adding a extreemly long inner barrel (rule of thumb is 6" over stock) you WILL need a bore up kit as bbs pointed out. other wise you will get suck back. you man to talk to on this would be illusion, he is well informed on this matter.

as for sighting, i could be wrong but isnt it, in real steel the ballistic trajectory at 25' is the same at 250' (or is it 300?) if you had your rifle upgraded properly wouldnt the same rule of thumb carry over? 25' being you minimum engagment and 250' being your maximum?
