BR help....
Heyo,
I'm wondering if someone could give me some suggestions on how to use the BR effectively. I recently completed my DMR commendation and wanted to try to work on the BR one next but frankly I'm having a helluva time with the BR.
I seem to take a ridiculous amount of time/shots to kill someone with it. I've emptied entire magazines into the body of an enemy and had them kill me as I was reloading. I hit a guy with an overcharged plasma pistol, popped his shield and it still took 4 pulls of the trigger at relatively short range to the body to kill him. It would have been faster to just finish him with the plasma pistol.
Meanwhile I can 5 shot someone at medium range with a DMR without even zooming in to aim at their head. Am I just that bad with the BR or is it ridiculously underpowered? (I mean emptying a magazine in a guys body should kill someone right???)
So please if there are some tips or tricks you all have let me hear them. Alternately, should I just work on the light rifle or the covey carbine instead?

I say use BR for medium or small maps and LR for large maps. The BR works best when you hipfire and strafe, try aiming for the top of their chest and not exactly at their head.
Don't use the carbine unless you're a glutton for punishment, that gun is so ridiculously weak, especially when facing a DMR user.
Play to the weapon's strengths; don't use it like a sniper rifle or a DMR unless your opponent is being stupid and using the AR/Suppressor/Storm Rifle. Also, listen to Valek and practice with it.
Once shields pop, shot for the head. That makes it a 5sk. If you are purposely trying to kill them will all body shots, it will be closer to 7 or 8 depending on conneciton to host.
I say get your kills in swat and then be done with the thing, at least thats what im doing. (along with the pistol)
4 to the body, one to the head.
Funny, mine seems to be broken as well....gif "1")

Range is probably your issue more than anything else. If you developed your chops witha DMR and moved to BR you are most likely engaging outside it's effective range. The DMR will spoil you that way.
