No, the TASM's range was actually 250nm... actually, it wasn't so much a "hard" range, but more of a "don't bother", effective employment deal. By time the TASM traveled 250nm (roughly 27 mins) the targets could have moved in any number of directions and, because of it's rather subpar radar, the bird wouldn't acquire even flying a search pattern.
