Arguably the best weapon in the game. Good accuracy, long range, no ammo needed, burst fire... this gun has it all. It does a LOT less damage than the heavy plasma, but that's about it. The bullet rifle reaches its limits with floaters and snakemen, but the laser rifle, once developed, is useful for the rest of the game.
Note that its shots will quite consistently destroy trees, brick walls, and other obstacles, but not reinforced metal like bases or ships.
The only thing that really withstands a pointblank burst from this would be the sectopod.
