This rifle is fairly simple to use because of its projectile pattern. At close ranges, it can land all of the bullets on one critical hit spot if they are large enough, or be used to hit multiple critical hit spots on larger enemies.

The wide spread of the bullets can make it effective at taking out large crowds of enemies. At close range, enemies can be hit by multiple bullets. This allows it to deal huge damage to huge targets.
