Neither of these dudes has powers, per se, but they're a pair of dudes whose crosshairs you don't want to be in.
What is their range? We may never know.

When he got home, his family witnessed a mob killiing, and the mob made a point to kill all the witnesses. But they didn't finish off Frank. This made him angry. | How He Came to Be: | Ran away to join the circus, and the performers there trained him to be a master archer. Then the carnies turned on him and beat the hell out of him. Carnies, amirite? Anyhow, he found his way to the Black Widow, and the rest be history. | Base of Operations: | Mobile, usually New York, NY | Base of Operations: | Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, NY; formerly (breathe) Stark Tower, New York, NY; Avengers Compound, Los Angeles, CA; Lighthouse, Earth Orbit; Avengers Mansion, Central Park, New York, Ny; Captain America's safe house, Brooklyn, NY; "Avengers Apartment", New York, NY; Stephen Strange's Mansion, Greenwich Village, New York, NY; Mount Charteris, CO (phew) | Teams: | None currently; formerly Code Red, Secret Avengers, Daredevil's Unnamed Super-Hero Team, Green Berets, U.S. Marine Corps | Teams: | Avengers, Avengers Academy, Secret Avengers (S.H.I.E.L.D.), former Secret Avengers (Black Ops Unit), New Avengers, World Counterterrorism Agency, Thunderbolts, Queen's Vengeance, Great Lakes Avengers, West Coast Avengerst, Cross Technological Enterprises, Shadows, Chain Gang, Defenders | Signature Lines: | "Remember my face! It's the last thing you're ever going to see ... and I want you to carry the memory of it straight to HELL!" | Signature Lines: | "I'm strictly a bow and arrow type." | Arch-Enemy: | Jigsaw | Arch-Enemy: | "Crossfire" | Sidekick(s): | Microchip (his tech provider) | Sidekick(s): | Many partnerships, but usually on an equal footing. Young Hawkeye (Kate Bishop) is something of a protégé, but she goes her own way soon enough. | Paramour(s): | Maria Castle | Paramour | Mockingbird/Bobbi Morse, Moonstone/Karla Sofen, The Wasp/Janet van Dyne | Has Been Played By: | Dolph Lundgren, Thomas Jane, Ray Stevenson | Once Played By: | Jeremy Renner | Could Have Been Played By: | Frank Stallone | Could Have Been Played By: | Tom Cruise | Song I Think Of: | "Night Prowler" | Song I Think Of: | "Shoot That Poison Arrow" | Supernatural Powers: | None | Supernatural Powers: | Generally none. Briefly used the Pym particles and became Goliath, which is really a stupid name to go by, if you think about it. | Non-Super Abilities: | Expert-level miltary training in all ways to kill: marksmanship, guerilla warfare, munitions, stealth, hand-to hand combat. He's in peak condition, and can tolerate pain. Hell, he uses pain. | Non-Super Abilities: | Peak human condition. If not the best marksman and archer in the world, certainly in the family picture. Also an outstanding fencer and acrobat, because he was trained in a traveling circus, and you know those guys know everything. He's strong enough that he keeps his bow strung tight enough that it requires 250 pounds-force to draw it back. You'd figure that would keep him from shooting in rapid succession, but he's that bad a badass. He's learned hand-to-hand combat, tactics, and leadership at the foot of Captain F. America, so he's not screwing around. He's got a bunch of trick arrows, is deft in the use of a katana, and pretty much any item on your coffee table is a deadly weapon in his hands. Flies around on a hovering snowmobile. | Weaknesses: | He's a human and therefore vulnerable to all human vulnerabilities, be it a common cold or hot lead. | Weaknesses: | He's a guy with no superhuman offensive or defensive powers who shoots arrows instead of bullets. If you've got to take a chance against an Avenger, he may be a good choice, ass-bad though he may be. He's gone mostly deaf from injuries sustained at the hands of sicko villains, and was losing his eyesight for a while there also, but the latter appears to have been restored. |
