Make the BR four-shot.

Think about it. What do we have for rifles already? (I will be excluding the Carbine because I feel it can't rival any of the other rifles, it needs a buff but that is a different subject)

Light Rifle - Fast kill time from long range when scoped in, but at close range is less effective than all the other rifles.

Battle Rifle - Effective at close range, kills at higher speed close up than Light Rifle, same speed as DMR but 3 round bursts allow for more opportunity to miss. Auto aim drop off is also much shorter as well as spread being higher than all the others, making it suck at long range.

Designated Marksman Rifle - Effective at close range, mid range, AND long range. Auto aim is active from pretty much across the map, it is very accurate but kills slower than the Light Rifle at range. At close range it shoots very rapidly and kills at the same speed as the BR.

As you can see, we have a long range rifle, what should be a close range rifle, and a middle ground. The problem is, the DMR outclasses the BR at close range. The DMR's time between shots is shorter making it more forgiving for misses, it shoots one shot at a time allowing for less bullets to miss, and it still kills the same speed as the BR. If the BR were to be a four shot kill, it would fill the spot of effective close range precision rifle, and would reward players with good aim with faster kill times, while punishing bad aim with a longer time between bursts. The DMR and LR would still outclass it at longer ranges, and the DMR and BR would be even at medium range.

By no means am I a balance expert, I could be completely wrong, but I feel this is the right way to go. Tell me what you think, Reddit.
