The DMR has the same kill time and shots to kill as the [[BR85 Heavy Barrel Service Rifle|Battle Rifle]];5 shots, 1.6 seconds. However, it's accuracy is hindered at close range due to a slight rise in the barrel that can throw players off. That said, a skilled player can control this rise.  On large maps, if a player wants to use something more reliable at close range than the [[Z-250 Directed Energy Engagement Weapon|Lightrifle]], the DMR is a good choice as well.
