Ranged Strength
From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape
Ranged Strength is one of the Equipment Stats, a bonus to specific stats based on what is equipped. It shows the ranged strength bonus of range items, similar to strength bonus of weapons. It was added by Jagex on 25th of March of 2009 to remove confusion on which arrows, bolts, etc., are more powerful. One example is Iron bolts vs Bone bolts. The Ranged strength stat shows that bone bolts are better, even though their level requirement for use is lower. Currently the highest ranged strength is +150, using Hand Cannon Shots, which can only be used with a Hand Cannon. Ranged strength can only be affected by the type of ranged ammunition you are using. The only piece of equipment besides ammunition that gives a Ranged Strength bonus is the Crystal Bow, which does not require ammunition.
Below are the ranged bonuses of the ammunition.
