I'll take a crack at it:

" For the purpose of your actions and Upgrade cards, you may treat friendly ships at Range 2-3 as being at Range 1."

I think OP imagined this meant that Snap Shot could be applied out to Range 3, if only Stridan could access it. However, as Snap Shot reads:

" After an enemy ship executes a maneuver, you may perform this attack against that ship."

As such, it doesn't actually synergise with Snap Shot. Stridan only affects friendly ships, and Snap Shot specifically targets enemy ships. So the only way that Stridan could benefit from Snap Shot is if he 'shelled his allies.'
