Strategic Analysis: S1897 in PUBG
In the current meta, the S1897 occupies a niche position. Its moderate time-to-kill of 6.700s at close range makes it viable in most combat scenarios. The weapon requires 8 shots to eliminate a full-health target at close range, 10 at medium range, and 12 at long range.
With 100 rounds per minute and a 5-round magazine, the S1897 can may require a reload mid-fight. Its headshot multiplier of 1.5x means skilled players can reduce TTK to 5.500s with consistent headshots.
Range performance sees damage drop to 85% at medium range and 70% at long range. Players should prefer close-to-medium range encounters.
