Re: range sucking
depends, whats the FPS, what gun is it, and are the bbs heading out properly, or just spitting out, or travelling for literally 10 metres?

Re: range sucking
Probably just a new hop rubber, though from the sounds of it, itd be a good idea to take the hop unit apart, and put it back together checking everything is where it should be. The nub may have come out of position for example

Get it looked at by a local techie, there's a guy local who does it for £25, PM me if you want more info.
That way you wont be spending money trying out lots of stuff which may not work

Re: range sucking
You could also have dirt in your barrel. Remove and check that too.
