Good point. A first step in fixing that would be to use the Speed / Range table to determine the distance of a miss, rather than MoF = yards. I'd use MoF -2 and round down, so a miss by 1, 2 or 3 still lands at 1, 2 or 3 yards, but beyond that the distance off will rise logarithmically. A miss by 10 will land 50 yards away, dealing 1/150 of the explosive damage, and fragment damage on a roll of 7-.
