There are a handful of "good" guns. But situational in best use.
For long distance using AR. R301 using jitter aim, where you rapidly do small circles and for some reason it reduces recoil to minimal. Pretty sure not intentional game mechanic, but it works to make it beam at distance. People do this with havoc too, which is meant to be close range weapon. Lots of light ammo on map, so can spam away.
Car SMG, R99 and Volt is at close range is most lethal.
Charge rilfe is more suppression at long range, but you have to peek longer for the full beam to output. Other snipers fire one shot and can cover.
I do miss the Prowler hop on then turned it full auto.
So I say more situational what is best. But towards end of the circle I find snipers/grenadesuseful for burning out enemy heal inventory.
Option is to carry 2x AR/SMG for quick swap insead of reload in close combat or carry 1x AR/SMG and 1x Sniper to be flexible or well Vantage has advantage in sense can carry 2x AR/SMG, carry 2-3 Accelerants and pretty much use Ultimate for sniping more often.

@PeterN_UK I remember the Prowler on full auto before it went into the care package. My god, it was a laser.
