Choose by availability and conversion

Han 86 is available earlier on the MP track; both list 72 weapon levels and the same base ammunition counts. M4’s higher listed base RPM is not a TTK result. Hurricane blocks Barrel/Magazine, while Skybreaker blocks Optic/Stock/Barrel. Use the builder to see how the conversion changes a supported set.

A reproducible test

For a future range test, keep target range, body zone, plates, attachments and input method identical. The official firing range has 10/25/50/100m dummies and optional plate settings. Record the game version and repeated results. This site has not performed that head-to-head test; the table is the source baseline, not an observed winner.
