Strong Bow with Mystic Arrows is my favorite ranged weapon of all. Powerpacs are too hard to come by and if you got some skill points in range and archery and a few char levels you get much more damage per round with arrows. Of course, Tripleshot X-Bows are nice, but then you have the problem of how many pounds of bolts you need to lug around...So, the Phazer isn't really worth it to me. I do like the Mystery Ray, but only because you don't need to reload it at all. It comes in the chests: Beyjin (hut with sentry), Beyjin Shallows (both DJL and the one on the boatwreck) But it's pretty rare (it imports from CDS).
(edit) i just realised, not answering your question: IIRC 5-20 or thereabouts, i don't remember any fantastic plusses. (it's been many games since i investigated one)

While you're at it with Jan-Ette, she can drop the Light Shield, too...you can get both to drop about 10%.
