this question plagues me as well

general ranged speed effects ALL ranged weapons, so yes

u can add +25 in general +25 in specific in mod attchments

general affects all wepaons - either range or melle

specific stacks with urgeneral but only when that weapon is equipped ie; rifle speed

Rather than me do a bad job of explaining it, try this instead:

Bring up your character sheet (CTRL-C) and try equipping different ranged weapons, and watch what happens to the stats.

Thank you for the explanations!

...just one more question: what is the cap post-CU on these?

There isnt a cap, you just get less benefit for having more after a certain point.

Which, according to my tests, is around 260 total accuracy and 150 total speed. Most normal carbine or rifle builds hit the soft-cap on accuracy easily, pistoleers can if they try. You usually end up with between 100 and 120 speed with the standard builds, so you can hit the cap with tapes fairly easily(if you can afford 'em), but Ive found I do just fine with only 105 total speed using a carbine.

Accuracy, however, is always worth increasing. Over 260 total accuracy doesnt appear to have much of an impact on damage or how often you hit, but if you plan on high-end PvE or PvP vs melee defense stackers(who will undoubtedly have TKA x1xx for Improved CoB), you need every last point or their defense will counteract your accuracy and mitigate damage down to nothing.

Crispic and Deuterium Pyro are chef buffs that increase accuracy, but pyro is currently bugged and lasts for 55 seconds rather than 55 attacks.
