There are a couple of guns which do have some real power.  The piston/air water cannon class of homemades are capable of sending "streams" of over 400x [small firehose is 135x, CPS 2000 is 28x] to ranges over 80ft.

Obviously, Nerf and soaking ranges are nowhere near each other.  It takes like 10 PSI to get a dart moving, but water takes considerably more force to move.

Don't forget about water balloon launchers.  Terminal velocity stops a dart at around 200ft, but nothing stops a water balloon fired from a pneumatic launcher.  Ranges there may exceed 800ft, and accurate range may exceed 300ft.
