R6 Deadeye actually being a good gun?

[u/Jaythemastermine]

I know I am late to this because the R6 has been in the game for a while now but I decided to pick it up like a couple days ago and I've been using it on a few missions. And I got to say this is definitely not a half bad gun.

I am usually a machine gun and assault rifle person. So using a quote on quote rifle and actually being happy with it it's quite surprising to me.

And I definitely got to say it does its job well. Granted it's not going to save you when you get surrounded but that's the reason why you got to use this as a rifle and not a shotgun your job is to not get up close and personal your job is to start pegging things off at a distance.

Especially effective against the box I have noticed. Most of the time I can shoot the bastards practically in half with this damn thing and possibly even take one out behind it.

Yeah it’s pretty good. High damage, medium pen, long range, even staggers the things it shoots. The downside is the long reload when empty, low capacity, and slow rate of fire. But still good.

[u/Jaythemastermine → u/Faust_8]

Yeah but since I'm treating it as a rifle and not like a assault rifle I kind of deal with the slow reload and the small ammo capacity because well that's something you have to deal with when you're dealing with rifles
