So I got down to some serious theorycrafting recently and something jumped out at me.
Specifically, the Sonic-Blasta Rifle ties the Sonic Cannon at 100% accurate kneeling snap fire for firing accuracy of 116+. Does this create a niche for the SBR as a sniper rifle (particularly for soldiers with even TU, since even one facing turn will stop them from firing two Sonic Cannon shots) for these exceptionally-accurate soldiers, since two SBR shots are generally better than one SC shot?
