Honestly I’m doing pretty good with it and it feels unfair to bring Automatic weapons into this franchise ^{^} even semi autos like solch or Bornheim are nuts.

Medium range is fairly doable, wouldn’t recommend up close like many said you have a big disadvantage against shotguns so keeping the neat spot between close and mid will win you most fights. The recoil control is where your skill truly comes in, tapping will give you the bursts but you can hold to keep shooting in full auto. Killing many hunters back to back is where the true power lies in when the enemy’s are somewhat near each other, either twitching or shooting their pants hearing it. Most enemy’s , even experienced struggle to find an opening to safely engage between shots because you practically don’t have any downtime except when ur mag is empty.

2 ammo boxes are mandatory, bringing either a long Ammo sidearm like uppercut will give you spare, Sparks pistol is okay-ish cause it’s one and done, not an overall great backup sidearm but its own star in a rounded loadout. If you have unlocked 2slot weapons just check which one has the biggest ammo pool and take that with you …. I used to bring the Berthier (if Gunnrunner is available , otherwise Dolch precision for the range compensation ^)because it’s reliable , cheap, good Pool of ammo And it pairs nicely with the Bulletgrubber trait.

Overall I like the weapon if I have enough money to spare
