Marksman rifle

Free Circuit

An olive semiautomatic rifle assembled to a dock surveyor’s exact marks. A predictable reset allows a steady firing cadence without the delay of a manual bolt.

01

Operating principle

An olive semiautomatic rifle assembled to a dock surveyor’s exact marks. A predictable reset allows a steady firing cadence without the delay of a manual bolt.

02

Modification choices

A two-stage trigger rewards deliberate timing. A medium optic preserves target reacquisition. A cheek riser steadies the sight picture but makes rapid shoulder changes slower.

03

Engagement doctrine

Hold a measured rhythm and keep your first target in view. Useful in every Battle Royale team size, especially as the second angle in Trio. PvE support should interrupt exposed machinery before the assault moves.

04

Strengths, limits & counters

Balanced reach and cadence; modest close-range tracking. Close from two angles to interrupt the user’s rhythm.

05

Reading the specifications

Damage is one unarmored torso hit at close range; a burst rifle reports one projectile, not an entire burst. Rate is nominal cycling speed; burst pauses, charging, cooling and reloads reduce sustained output. Capacity counts projectiles, shells or charges per load. Range describes the intended engagement distance. Recoil is a 0–100 control-demand index: lower is steadier, not weaker.

06

Operators & modes

Recommended operators: ECHO, LEDGER. The displayed range is 125 metres in this fictional design. Treat it as a planning guide: sightlines, armor and movement still decide the encounter.
