a $600 scale and 25% winning range within that feels, to me, too narrow.

I wouldn't call it narrow, but $150 range on a $600 scale with today's prices is pretty ridiculous.

But the reason why it won't be changed is that Range Game is not setup nor played as a game of pricing but as a game of patience.  If they want a win, the price will be nearer the middle of the board.  If they don't, it'll be closer to the extremities; and even then, when was the last time the price appeared in the first $150 or last $150 range of the scale?  When was the last time a contestant stopped the Range Finder in either of those sections?

Most contestants either:
- Try to cover themselves by straddling as much (usually around the middle of the board) of a price range that looks possible (often this will include capturing across a change in the thousands digit).
- Wait until the audience screaming becomes so intolerable that they press the stop button.

Now, if it was a $600 range on a $2,400 scale, then the game might be vastly improved in terms of playing it with an eye for pricing and not just guessing around the "likely" places the price is to be on the range.
