Accuracy was also severely lacking with these shots, so if you want to fire single darts from the Sledgefire, my suggestion is to get a shell purpose made for firing single shots, or mod the Sledgefire.Īccuracy naturally isn't very good considering the Sledgefire fires 3 Elite style darts through a wide barrel. However, the consistency of shots is very bad, with some shots firing shorter than with 3 darts loaded. Loading only a single dart does get a bit more range, reaching the 12m (40') mark. Putting only two darts into the shells instead of 3 gets you slightly better ranges, but the range difference is minor (about a metre at best) and you'd be much better off with the extra shot from loading 3 darts. This gives the Sledgefire a much more respectable power score. This would normally get it a terrible rating the the power category, except for the fact that the Sledgefire fires all three of its darts to this range, not just one. The Sledgefire punches its three darts out to about 9m (30') which is pretty bad by today's standards, and average even by N-Strike standards. Unfortunately, having an open box means the blaster is exposed to more germs, dirt, etc, and is much more easily damaged or tampered with than a sealed box. This open box idea is supposedly intended to let people know exactly what they're purchasing, which is a good idea. Past modern Nerf blasters of this size have all been in sealed boxes, while some of the upcoming blasters are intended to have open boxes.

Here's the Sledgefire in its new design open box. So how does the Sledgefire stack up as a shell using blaster?

Some like the novelty/realism factor of the shells, while others hated how they drastically increased reloading time. This concept has been around for a while, primarily from Buzz Bee, but has had mixed opinions. Unlike every other Nerf blaster though, the Sledgefire uses shells to allow for fast reloading of multiple darts. Like its partner the Hammershot, the Sledgefire is a completely new design rather than a modified version of an older blaster. The Sledgefire was one of the two blasters in Zombie Strike's first wave back in late 2013.
