The range is actually 50 I believe.
There is a separate range 50 arrow.

Arrows start out at base range 50 if I understand correctly, so if you use components that add no range and some that reduce you can get a 0 range arrow. My guess is that instead of having 0 range arrows they had it default to range 5 instead.
A good way to think of it is that the arrow adds range to your boy, so better components (or ones that dont trade range for damamge) just give you bonus range basically.
*Edit
after looking at the componets of arrow above, what I said is the case, hooked points +1 dam, bone shafts +1 dam, large nocks no mod, shild cut fletchings +1 dam -50 range (idea being that cause the arrow to spin as you put them on at a slant, increasing penetration but decreasing the amount of energy that goes towards forward momentum, thats my take at least), these are mods are added to base stats of arrow, 1 dam 50 range, so you end up with 4 dam 0 range, or as it seems the minimum of five range
End Edit*

i dont play a ranger but have a warrior would this arrow be good for close mele like when it says target is too close with regular arrows ? or is it just tottaly useless
Don't forget that the arrow range stacks with the bow range, so if I fired this from my warrior's twisted longbow(range 185), it would have a net range or 190.
Honestly, this is just a less useful combination of pieces, that happens to show up as a viable part of the typical skill up path. If you used small groove nocks, instead of large, the range would be considerably better. This is just a relatively cheap high damage arrow.
However, if you have some, I can assure you that they work fine for pulling in the average dungeon setting (LDoN, for example) when paired with a decent bow.
