Hmm
can't say i've noticed this, never really had a problem with the range of my attacks though.
Blazing bolt seems to be fine as long as i'm not up against Crey or Nemesis snipers.
Although I can;t be sure about a distance change, I'll throw in this observation - I can still, in I6, outsnipe (distance-wise) a Nemesis sniper with my blaster, using Blazing Bolt.

Haven't noticed any range decrease but sure have noticed damage lowered. Which is a very bad thing considering a blasters squishability. Earlier I could kill an enemy with one shot (white and some yellow) - now I can take'em down to 25%, so they charge hurt but able to kill. Freaks are even worse as the time from the snipe to the next attack gives them time to heal up to 70-80% health. So the attack that was my best is no more as useful :P
Anyone else notice a drop in range of snipe and other attacks? Went up in I5 I believe and now dropped again. Probs mentioned somewhere, but how are people finding it?
