Given the increase in range and its current damage profile and scope instead of ironsight, the AScR could have less ammo than the AR and CR - place it just below 300 at around 290 - 295.
The ScR has the ability to deal massive damage with charged shots. Its ammo pool can easily serve a user if the weapon is used as intended. Dropping it to 200 - 205 would be fine.
Go look up the fitting costs of the ar cr and scr I'm not even going to argue my point just go look it up
Yeah the ScR is about 2.5x harder to fit than the Combat Rifle. It uses more CPU and PG, it should be better.

It uses more CPU and PG, it should be better. Sorry but that is not how it works. Amarr suits have more CPU/PG plus the scrambler rifle has more range and damage per shot than the CR and in the case of the ScR, charged shots offer the user the ability to put out way higher damage and kill efficiently leaving them ample ammo vs other weapons. This is not a nerf the scrambler into the ground request. This is a slight reduction of ammo to bring it in line with the other racial rifles, given what we know about them.
Actually, that is how it works. Better things use more CPU/PG. The ScR uses more CPU/PG than the Combat Rifle, therefore it should be better. Everything in Dust more or less works this way.
The Amarr Logi in no way has extra CPU/PG. It actually has reduced PG.
If anything, the Combat Rifle should be the worst Rifle.Instead they made an easy to fit Duvolle that does extra damage to Armor instead of shields. TBH the Combat Rifle looks OP to me, so does the Assault Rail Rifle.

Your point is valid, but max ammo isn't that big of a deal with hives being so easy to carry, and supply depots. I propose reducing magazine capacity instead. Perhaps to 25-30 down from 45.
Sure. It wouldn't really do anything though. The ScR overheats at 18-22 rounds, so this is just nerfing for the sake of nerfing.

Well lets agree to disagree. IMO your argument holds as you go up a weapon scale, not across different weapons. Different races build weapons to be good in certain areas that can fit in their power envelope. I dont think CCP puts a hard and fast rule on more powerful automatically equals more CPU/PG
Really? Sidearms are generally less powerful and use less fitting resources than light weapons. Heavy weapons are more powerful(on paper) and use more fitting resources than light weapons. The Plasma Cannon and Flaylock are both considered 'weak'(I don't consider the Plasma Cannon weak) by the majority of the Player base and neither of them even use any PG. The trend continues on to equipment as well, with Scanners and Uplinks(the two most used equipment) using the most resources.
