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?

If you didn't have to worry about turning, the sonic pistol would be a good earlier option for someone with 103+ accuracy. That gets you two 100% aimed shots while kneeling.
