Start with the QBZ reference

The reference record lists 28 base damage, 650 rounds per minute, and 870 m/s muzzle velocity. These values are a versioned community extraction; event variants and later patches can differ.

Understand the calculation before the ranking

At the listed cadence of 650 RPM, consecutive shots are 0.092 seconds apart. Time to kill starts at the first landed shot, so the model uses one fewer firing interval than the required hit count. Armor, mixed hit zones, missed shots, burst delay, and reloads can change the real result.

Test a fair comparison

Put the QBZ beside a weapon you actually carry and use the same target HP, armor, helmet, and hit location. Inspect hits to kill, firing intervals, and remaining HP. Treat the range penalty as an illustrative training model, not a datamined falloff curve.

Turn it into a repeatable drill

  1. Review the 2026-10-28 source record
  2. Keep the practice conditions repeatable
  3. Change one variable and record the result
