Very interesting about the sights, and about the 8 meter difference between max damage range and reliable accuracy range.

Furthermore: When he's firing for an initial headshot and following up with body shots, he's killing almost everyone in 3 shots, which is fantastic, and - more to the point - the same amount of shots it takes to kill people even if every shot is a headshot. The only caveat to that is when his luck in the chamber procs, which allows for a two-headshot kill against low armor characters. Even so, I don't think the risk is worth it. If you can train yourself to open with a headshot and then follow up with body shots, you can get into a three shot rhythm and it will be easier to hit "the zone" during your crucible play. Headshot, body, body. Headshot, body, body. Headshot, body, body, reload. and so forth.
