Strategic Analysis: Heavy Rifle in GTA Online
In the current meta, the Heavy Rifle occupies a dominant position. Its moderate time-to-kill of 0.508s at close range makes it viable in most combat scenarios. The weapon requires 6 shots to eliminate a full-health target at close range, 7 at medium range, and 8 at long range.
With 590 rounds per minute and a 30-round magazine, the Heavy Rifle can secure kills within a single magazine. Its headshot multiplier of 2x means skilled players can reduce TTK to 0.203s with consistent headshots.
Range performance sees damage drop to 85% at medium range and 75% at long range. Players should prefer close-to-medium range encounters.
