Let's put it this way: It takes about half a mag to kill a simple trash mob. A Handcannon takes 2-3 shots.

Or a handcannon can hit the crit spot and they die instantly. Pvp, Auto's still suck ass. They kill a little faster but they don't win battles like a hand cannon does. The thought of bungie making autorifles fire in a circular pattern is stupid.
