I know pretty cool right? fixed. That's the point man, the bonus for Amarr makes sense, wtf do we need a reload bonus for on a long range weapon. What I'd the Rail Rifle nerf ends up being a magazine size nerf? You'd feel mighty foolish for complaining then wouldn't you?
ATM, the rail rifle has a dmg. nerf

Ok, so 50% reduction to reload speed per level.

Caldari should either get a % reduction to spool time or % increase to hybrid rail range. This will complement their ranged fighter play style. Of course, the second option will require some further adjustments to the rail and sniper

The % would have to be like 1%.
And the second one? I personally prefer this one as it affects both light weapons, like the other races' assaults do

Increased range is not a great idea. Ye olde Sharpshooter was removed because it gave a huge bonus. Being able to use the same weapon but flat out hit farther than your enemy just because "you haz more sp lulz" is not a good idea.
What should it be? I haven't the slightest idea.
Like I mentioned, this would require further changes to the rail and sniper

I don't agree with the second one. That would put it dangerously close to being on par with the sniper rifle as far as range goes.
I would prefer that all bonuses go the way of the Amarr assault and give bonuses to each racial weapon's weaknessess.
For example, Minmatar get a 5% increase to ammo capacity, since they run out the fastest. Caldari would get a 5% reduction to recoil. Galente would get either a 5% ROF bonus or 5% sharpshooter (distance) bonus. Amarr stays as is.
Edit: The percentages I gave are disputable. I merely used it to make a point. Bonuses should cater to the weapon's weakness, thus giving you a reason to improve upon it.
Ummm, the SR would benefit from the bonus too.
If you mean the RR having comparable range to an unmodded SR, then again, adjustments to the weapon as required

Oh, and buff the range of the LR to make it not completely over-shadowed by this. I'd increase the range on the LR to about 160m.
The LR needs a better optimal, not more range
