It, and other hand cannons range needs to be adjusted. In mid range it should still be powerful but from a distance they shouldn't hit as hard as they do. The physics of hand cannons are all messed up. The mythical let down that they were supposed to have upon the hand cannon nerf never really did anything. Full disclosure. I use Hawkmoon. I would rather be using something like MIDA. But when the hand cannons range is twice the scout rifles it becomes almost necessary to fight fire with fire.
