|---|---|---|
| Base Damage | 40 | 55 |
| Rate of Fire (RPM) | 210 RPM | 150 RPM |
| Headshot Multiplier | 2x | 2x |
| Magazine Capacity | 6 rounds | 6 rounds |
| Reload Speed | 2s | 2s |
| Weapon Type | Revolver | Revolver |
| Rarity Tier | Common | Common |

"Analyzing the combat data, the Algernon's Revolver emerges as the clear victor at close range, shredding targets 0.057s faster than the Calloway's Revolver."
In ranked, close-range consistency is king. The faster TTK of the Algernon's Revolver makes it the meta choice.
Easier recoil control makes the Calloway's Revolver much more forgiving for new players.
The versatile range of the Algernon's Revolver pairs perfectly with a Sniper Rifle.
When analyzing raw combat efficiency, Time-to-Kill (TTK) is the most critical metric. In the 0-10m range, the Algernon's Revolver delivers a TTK of 1.14s, while the Calloway's Revolver clocks in at 1.20s.
This gives the Algernon's Revolver a clear mathematical advantage in face-to-face duels. A difference of 0.057s might seem small, but in Red Dead Redemption 2's fast-paced server tick rate, it often determines who survives a trade.
In terms of Damage Per Second (DPS), the Algernon's Revolver outputs 140 damage, compared to the Calloway's Revolver's 138.
Controlling your weapon is just as important as its raw damage. The Algernon's Revolver features a challenging recoil pattern.
At medium range (20m+), damage drop-off begins to impact performance. The Algernon's Revolver retains 90% of its damage, resulting in a mediocre TTK of 1.43s.
In competitive situations, handling speeds often dictate the winner of a surprise engagement. The Algernon's Revolver features an ADS speed of 240ms, while the Calloway's Revolver transition takes 240ms.
