TK ST 10, range 100 yards, +30% [65]
I don't have any problem with the power in general, but I would find it complete silliness for a GM to say that there is no difference between pummeling someone from 1 yard away and from 100 yards away. If I had a player try that on me, or a GM make that type of ruling, I'd tell both of them that they're rules Munchkins trying to break the game and if we're not playing a Toon based game, then I'm not tolerating that type of Munchkin silliness.
Mind you, I don't have any issue with the character having No Roll required for +100%, I just don't tolerate Munchkin rules exploits which gives them that bonus for free.
How do you feel about Munchkin rules exploits?

Not same thing. What you describe is a case of a TK using SM0 'hands' to pummel someone waaay beyond her natural Reach.
OTOH, a proproperly scaled SM+5 entity will not only have more Reach, but will also have SM+5 fists. And we all know that hitting an eye-sized target with a 16-yard explosion is no harder than hitting an SM0 target with it, because at this point, the impact zone is large enough to compensate any penalties.
