First clean your barrel/bucking
then use a heavier weight bb, say 0.25 upto a max of 0.28-0.3's (they get a lot more expensive, and the benifits are minimal on 350fps)
then an upgrade your hop rubber (I personally like g&g green or a tm rubber)
then look into hop units/barrels etc etc
why this order ... simplicity and cheapness

For the most part, it's no different to a real firearm:
Good weapon maintenance, and high quality ammunition.
Once you've got that out of the way, the main component that controls range is your hop system. A good hop rubber - TM especially - will give you a small boost to range. Get those things out of the way first before you start looking into things like cylinder upgrades, tightbore barrels and the like.

OK, so when you say you want more range, how far do you expect it to shoot? Realistically?
Without a doubt the best (easily reversible steps) to take to try and get better range is to up the weight of your Beebs and change your rubber.
At least .25s. But try .28s.
And replace the hop rubber for a Prometheus Purple.
Eagle6 sell the purple rubber for £8.98, so it's cheap enough to be a no-brainer and it's dead easy to change... And even of the gain is small in your rifle, it'll be better than the stock Rubber.

Best way to increase range on this gun is to improve your shoulder muscles then you could get at least 15mtrs further away from the skip before throwing.

I have a nuprol delta recon bravo AEG and I was wondering what the best hop up rubber is for more fps and range. And waht degree I should get e.g 50,70 or 80.
Before my Nuprol Delta Sopmod died.... I put a Prommy Purple in it, but modified it so I could flathop it. Ran great on .28's before the gun died and moved onto something else. (ICS..G&G and now TM)
Going to put that Prommy Purple & Flathop nub in the TM this weekend and see what happens.
Okay thank you do you know what the barrel is inside my gun? And what the hop up system is inside?Before my Nuprol Delta Sopmod died.... I put a Prommy Purple in it, but modified it so I could flathop it. Ran great on .28's before the gun died and moved onto something else. (ICS..G&G and now TM)

6.03mm Steel barrel I believe and the hop unit is a standard dial hop unit, not as good as rotary hop units. It's ok, but nothing special.
I find the standard hop units a bit fiddly when trying to flathop, as you have to remove more parts than the rotary style hopunits...but there are plenty of vids on youtube on how to take the hop unit apart and modify it.... I learned a lot by taking my gun apart.
It was a good starting gun, but that was 2 years ago...a lot better starter guns out there.
I wouldn't spend to much money on trying to upgrade it...better to save your money and buy a mid-tier pew pew.

Hey, so I'm picking up a delta ak21 tomorrow, and I'm curious if you know what went wrong for your sopmod to die?Before my Nuprol Delta Sopmod died....

Sorry for necro, but actual delta owners seem few and far between.
