The effective range of an M-4 assault rifle is 500m (550 yards). This is a point target distance. Meaning the distance at which one can shoot a human sized target. The area target is 600m or (660 yards). This means you can shoot and hit a target the size of a car at this disance. To answer the initial question the maximum range of this particular rifle is 3600m. I'm currently in the U.S. Army serving in Korea, this can be confirmed on Google. The Army FM (Field Manual) is 3-22.9 reagrding this issue.

Which is better SA80 or M4?

you cant really compare them because M4 is a carbine ( barrel length between a SMG and a rifle), so a compact version of M16 and SA80 is a full length rifle. SA80 has a further effective range I'm going to have to go with the SA80 its by far more accurate, of good design and was used by the elite, how ever the L85A2 is becoming more popular.

Is the range of the m16 longer than the m4?

That depends on which range you mean. Since they both use the same ammo the maximum range is the same 3600 meters. However the effictive ranges are different due to the barrel length difference: The M16A2 max range for a point target is 550m, the M4 is 500m. The M16A2 max range for a area target is 800m, the M4 is 600m.
