R-99 is so overrated!

I've been grinding ranked / pubs through S7 and have to say that I honestly think the R-99 is one of the most overrated weapons. Don't get me wrong, I have had 7,8,9 kill games with this weapon but...

@rockyboy1998 I prefer the 99 right after landing, but switch for a Volt if I find one. After first few mins I'll try to find an R-301 to replace it, because more versatile gun. If no Volt, I'll go with Hemlok...

I riun dual 99. Don't run across me or ill show you how your thoughts of it being overrated are highly wrong. =P Darth can attest to my 99 shots even at distance. Best guns in game hands down. Just need to be in the right hands.

  @E9ine_AC That’s really interesting. I remember I used to run a duel R-99 back in S3 but now I just don’t see the hype. I much prefer the Volt and in previous seasons the Prowler was my go to weapon!

    @rockyboy1998 The volt is actually a tad stronger then the 99. Only by 2 bullets though.
    
    While 99 would take someone say 8 bullets kill someone the volt would only take 6. It is 2 bullets of damage difference. Quite minimal but there is a difference in which is stronger.

    @matzesingt Is indeed correct but by a minimal margin to even notice. Both offer quick-fire rate but for me, the 99 demolishes quicker close-up hip firing.
