I run two variations, one with RR and one with CR. I have more luck with CR, but every once in a while, I'm stuck in a match where the fight is from rooftop to ground most of the time. To be at all effective, I pull out the RR, but the ACR is by far my go to baby.
Also, since the introduction of the new rifles and the amount of damage they can do in so little time, I'm sad my core focused doesn't work as well as it did before. Used to be I could be around a corner repping a guy forever while he mowed reds down. Now, the rifles can do more damage than I can heal. Even on a heavy. Not a truly bad thing, really, but sad that my ultra rep tool isn't as uber anymore. :(

i personally have both of them to prof.3.
if you plan on facing heavies head on, (though from what i'm hearing, this isn't a good idea) then use the ACR. it will excel the best in CQC. or practice with the normal CR. once you get used to it, it out DPS the ACR. I have both to level 4 right now. I like the CR (both variants) better, but the RR certainly has great situational value. I'm asking more in general terms, what makes more sense for the fit... RR or ACR? Maybe regular CR is a compromise.
I guess my answer would be that while they are both good, I grab CR before RR, in most every situation. Most of my encounters include popping over a hill and letting 1 or two see me and filtering them around a corner or through a straight hallway. I can feather the CR faster and the bursts help me strafe and hit target more often than the RR. If you're in a squad, (which you should be) more often than not, most of them are running RR to handle the far aways for you.

It's only 75 HP/sec, so your heavy will have to play conservatively unless he has two tools locked on him, but the extra distance means you can stay far away from the engagements and also can triage other teammates in a far larger radius.
I'm going to have to try this now. I have the Core Focused and never had the opportunity/need to pull out the Six Kin but that extra healing distance would really help out. As it is now, I have to jump around like a caffeinated flea while healing.
