Geaux Darkcloud Well, me and my friend (both rifleman) pve'd quite a bit post-cu, and when we do (especially against bigger things), we just use this
We stand at least 40m of each other and...
Him: ranged shot
Me: ranged shot
Him: placed shot
Me: placed shot
Him: kneedcap
im rifle/bh and my buddy is smuggler/rifle pre 19 we had it made in the shade with concussion and nukage, but since 19 we have had to change tactics.
before we engage something we will go over a game plan, but if it really goes to poo he feigns and i burst
we have taken out most everything in the game with just the 2 of us and we rarely get hit, altho we have been playing together (i.e. same guild,hunting,etc.) for about a year now, so we are not newbs and can adapt the plan, whatever it may be
so in summation rifle/bh/pistol stuff and rifle/smuggler/pistol stuff works really well in my opinion
best me and a mate have tried was me as M.Rifle/M.BH/4000CM, with a M.Pike/M.Doc.
we alternate between tanking / healing. between us can take everything ingame MOB wise and most pvp giveup when they realise we can both completely out heal even large groups. the damage we put out isn't as high as it perhaps could be but we just take a little longer, why rush!

If by "best" you are referring to most successful, then by far it's 2 people landing a KD and spamming startle and disarm. Seen this done to several very competant 226k jedi's recently and they were helpless. But this won't be viable very soon (thankfully).
having either a master combat medi, or a Master doctor, makes your life so much easier, MCM has nice dots, a liller snare, thyroid rupture is SO nice, and they can heal both of ya at once. if the MCM is melee, they can tank just about anything 
0/0/0/4 doc buffs make your dps go through the roof.
My favorite paired up hunting tactic is working with a pistoleer and their root special.
Place the pistoleer 40 meters from the target with you and your rifle 20 meters further out. Hit the target with a conceal shot and then sniper shot. As the creature runs into pistol range the pistoleer roots it. Because I have done the most damage the creature will not aggro on the pistoleer so they get to plug away at point blank range while I lay down damage from outside the creature's melee/ranged attack range.
Good hunting and clear skies.
