I kinda-- agree with the OP, let me explain.

The tac AR has a RPM of 400, giving it a RPS of 6.667

The ScR has a RPM of 705, giving it a RPS of 12.5 (about)

Now NO ONE can fire at 12.5 rounds per second without the assists of a turbo controller, and even 6.66 rounds per second is pushing it.

I do think that the RPM should be cut back to the same rate as the TAR for no other reason than to not give turbo users an advantage over normal players (or a larger advantage).

TLDR: Cut the ScR back to 400 RPM, no human can use faster firing than that anyway.

6.66 rounds is not pushing it. That's average. Most people can do that without issue.
Some people are capable of 9-10 rounds per second.

We should cap both of their their RoF at 600. That allows almost everyone to make the most out of their own abilities. That is 10 rounds per second. Most won't be able to make use of this, but some will. This is how semiautomatics should be balanced.

Also, the ScR does 11.75 rounds per second, not 12.5

While there is no better place to be wealthy than the Gallente Federation, there is no hell worse for the poor either.

Also, the ScR does 11.75 rounds per second, not 12.5 No, it is most certainly not average, not even close. Do just a cursory google search and you will find 3-5 clicks per second to be the average. That is clicks, not trigger pulls on a controller. Mouse clicks are way easier to do, and faster, than trigger pulls on a controller. Anyway, at 6.666 rounds per second, the TAR does about the same damage as an AR does, so it really doesn't need to be bumped up.
