So, you want to give up the ability to make Melee spellstrikes? Quite a few of the Magus spells are touch attacks to mesh with its key ability, so you’ll want to extend their range. Perhaps Reach Spell. I have developed a love for a different metamagic feat, just because it turns elemental damage into physical damage, letting you ignore pesky things like resistance or immunity. Benthic Spell (Metamagic).

Are you sure you want to go with Eldritch Archer? You really aren’t gaining anything you won’t already have through the Spellslinger’s ability to channel spells through the rifle, except more BAB and some Magus Arcana. If damage is your goal, using the Conductive property with the firearm and channeling a high damage ability through it seems more potent. Something like a kinetic energy blast or a channel energy Ray.

Check out the Magus guide (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?423754-Myrrh-Frankincense-and-Steel-Kurald-Galain-s-Guide-to-the-Magus).

Note that while Eldritch Archer is very powerful, its ranged spellstrike ability really isn't. Doing a full attack with arrows plus casting Scorching Ray normally will give you more damage than attaching the Scorching Ray to one of your arrows.

Here is a link (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?504501-Spellslinging-Havoker-(Witch)-Advise-please) of my first attempt at building the Spellslinger/Havoker. Post 6 outlines my feat choices. I even detail some of the better spell choices to use with Reach Spell.

Not sure if the DM/GM will allow you to get hexes like I did, but if not you can choose a different race.
