My personal preference is to use 2 Weapons (Both SAC and damage Capped Assault Bowcasters
. On my inital strike, I use my speed PuPed weapon hitting hard and fast and using almost all of my action. If the Jedi is still standing after that, ( Few are ) and it looks like its gonna be a long grind of a fight, I will quickly switch to my SAC PuPed weapon. Then its game on.

FYI as it is not clear in the O.P.
Damage pups increase the damage output by a % of the MINIMUM damage... not mazimum damage....
That number is then applied to both the min and maximum damage...

Speed Pups - The + speed abviously increases the rate at which you can fire. The - Accuracy lowers your accuracy by that much by using this Pup.
Dmg - The + Dmg will increas your dmg by this persentage IE a 1100 max dmg weapon will get a greater effect then a 500 max dmg weapon. ALSO the +speed is acctuallay a negative and will slow your speed down by that persentage. So for example a 15% dmg with 1% speed is a better PUP then a 30% dmg 5% speed ect higher the dmg, lower the +speed better the PUP is.
SAC- the sac - % will lower your sac by that much
And the - accuracy will lower your accuracy by that much.
ACCURACY - MATTERS
The higher your accuracy not only do you hit more obviously. But the HARDER you hit. The higher your accuracy the higher your DMG. So if you have a +60 accuracy rifle and get a - 20 accuracy PUP that has -34% sac you are acctually having to fire alot more to get the same amount of dmg from a 20% sac -4 or 5 accuracy pup.
I only make High Qual triple or more Amazing experamented Pups.
Figured id post this since I still meet people using 30% sac -15% accuracy on my server.
My personnal choice is a -33% sac - 10 accuracy SAC pup.
With a good speed slice on a capped rifle per example , i get 700 modified dps with a sac of 58. Get buffs, use Pyro on top on that here and there , and you'll be ready for long fights, if you have the right armor.
When i used to be carbineer ,I had 51 sac on my capped carbine, and I was able to shoot non stop, without worrying about my action too much for anything else than KD recovery.
Personnal choice
speed slice - sac pup.

I like to keep two rifles on me at all times...
One is lvl3 damage,lvl1 speed,lvl1 crit slice while the other is lvl4 speed. I have a damage pup on one and a sac pup on the other. I use the sac pup in the beginning of a fight to do decent damage with specials while reserving my action. Once the fight drags on a while, whenI know the opponent's stomach is full and mind is running low, I switch to the high damage rifle and wail away. If for some reason this method fails I can always startle and kneel to regen action and switch back to the sac pup rifle.
Unfortunatly, I havent found a proffession yet, that damages a jedi to death. All fights I've won except one were draining the jedi of action/mind/force.

Yeah your right, having 2 weapons is awsome for those who can afford it.
One cap with sac pup
One cap with speed slice and damage or speed pup.
If you have 2 adk for the weapons use it, will make a difference.

I got lucky with the ADKs too...
I have all 5 pieces of my ubese 8088 energy resist adked....
and 2 weapons adked...
1. sac/damage/wound capped HLR
2. LD-1 rifle with a full damage slice....
The sac on the LD-1 is high at 95... so I put a sac pup on that... The key is that it is kinetic... so helps against PSGs....

SAC PUPs are definitely the way to go. With the correct foods and a63-64SACyou never have to worry about your action pool- no matter how long the fight.Andthe -4 accuracy is tolerable.There's nothing worse than not being able to use special attacks. Ranged shot makes me 
Good post, Gonton. Hopefully people will listen to you

There's nothing wrong with using placed or ranged shot. In my informal testing I find that I can do the same amount of damage in less time with placed and ranged shot opposed to adv crit.
