What kind of darts, what kind of batteries (brand, alkaline or rechargeable), what was the weather like, etc.? Or did that come from somewhere else?

On another note, the box advertises the 75 foot range of the rest of the Elite series (again, I know that's only with an angled shot). I've been able to get that kind of range, though level shots are about 55 to 60 feet. Modded guns get more ranges.

I don't mod my guns. The most "modding" I've ever done was painting the light off of my Recon blue to match my other guns.

The box advertises 75 feet. I put in cheap-o Sunbeam 1.5 alkaline batteries from Dollar Tree and got 55 on a level shot and about 70-ish at an angle. No mods. NOTHING. Stock standard, straight out of the box.
