Can someone please explain to me why when i was working my way up to pistols 4 I had alot better accuracy than i do moving up to rifles 4. I mean up through pistols 4 u get +5 speed as u advance.... its the same for rifles but i cant seem to hit anything wiht the rifle.

Its because pistols have a faster rate of fire that Rifles *baring the Spraystick*,
Most pistol speeds are like 3 or below, Rifles , basic tuskan is 9 speed! (thats the highest, but u get my drift?),
but er withRifleman branchthe mods help bring the speed curve down,
In the learning curve of guns, its
Pistol / Carbine / Rifle,
iE pistol takes quickest to become good at, Carbine next (althuogh nasty ham costs, but that dont matter), and Rifles lastly, due to the slower speeds to start off with,

Because Rifles lose alot of accuracy when you arn't far away. Pistols seem to lose the least accuracy no matter what range hehe.

so you get 160 accuracy as master rifle, i have plus 26 in attachments(25 is max i guess) and i use snowcake. How comei missmost ofthe time? i mean even if someone was maxed on dodge and ranged defense youd think with 225 accuracy i would be hitting more.
im master rifle / master fencer / medic 0-0-3-0 / pistoleer 0-0-4-1

Ouch. Lot invested to be missing a lot. The only thing I can think of is that you might not be doing if you're looking to stick status effects is totry using a laser, e11, or dxr6 with all the experimentation points put into the range mods. A friendly weaponsmith will usually make one special for you for 50k or so. I use a laser with +120 ideal range with a range pwp to stick my status effects before I switch to the jawa for doing damage. After you've stuck a stun with flushing2, you won't miss, it's just getting that first stun stuck for me.

lol.. well maybe rifle accuracy while moving would help also?
I think its payback for hogging all the rifle speed attachments...
Seriously, are you stunning them first? For me stunning plus intimidate really helps me hit them hard.

I can hit them, the question is can I damage them. Put a scope on a DXR-6b and you have high accuracy mods. You can hit stackers pretty often. I have one that is +89 Range that is experimented for Damage.

True that. I forget that I have +15 or so in SEAs for accuracy while moving. When dueling a defense stacked fencer friend with COB running, I hit about 2 out of 3 when I've got the 120 range mod gun with an accuracy pwp and a snow cake in me. I hit him about 1 in 5 if I start with my jawa or T21 though and the same foods. As long as the accuracy gun sticks the stun, I can hit him with any gun of my choice afterwards.
