The only thing that better than a Blunderbuss is the Frontier Phaser. Its light, requires no ammo, and has a 5% chance to kill.
Generally, bows/xbows are a better choice for ranged combat, especially for melee characters. Modern weapons get no damage bonuses and no extra attacks from the Modern Weapon skill. Bow ammo can have a greater %chance to kill, along with a %chance on the bow. Strength increases bow damage, and high level bows have up to 50% increase in damage. Bows are not limited to the amount of ammo they can fire in one round, and its not uncommon for a 20+ character to shoot 6 to 12 arrows a round.
