Other notable stats:

DPS loss vs. normal CR: -7.9%
Damage Increase per tier: 9.5%

To find what the stats for this weapon should be, I compared the Burst and Breach variants of the Plasma Rifle, and the stat differences between them (I choose the PR simply because it's the only weapon with both a Br and Bu variant).

Though I'm not sure if the Breach CR should have a range increase seen in other Breach Weaponry, so I decided to leave the optimal at 67m.

Since its a breach type rifle, it's supposed to be a low RoF auto rifle.

And if I remember correctly, after all the hotfixes, adding variants of weapons is already on the list.

Personally, I think that the Breach's fire mode should entirely depend on the fire-mode of it's base weapon. Not only do we have enough full-auto weapons to last a while, but it makes the weapons far more unique.

Also, I'm going to assume you didn't see the thing at the bottom saying that the BCR's RoF is 42% less than the CR's.

Actually CCP Rattati said that after item balance is taken care of, new weapons and variants would be coming. Given how a new weapon variant would be done in a Hotfix, I'm 100% certain that it wouldn't come after "all the hotfixes".

I understand but this wouldn't fit the uniform of the rifle variants.

All races have their base rifle variants as follows:

Caldari - breach (rail rifle)
Amarr - tactical (scrambler rifle)
Minmatar - burst (combat rifle)
Gallente - assault (plasma rifle)

Then each race has variants of its rifle to mimic the others but so far gallente only has the full set:

Tactical Plasma Rifle - Gallente's scrambler rifle
Burst Plasma Rifle - Gallente's combat rifle
Breach Plasma Rifle - Gallente's rail rifle

The assault variants of all the rifles are full auto - ACR, ASCR, ARR. So all the tactical variants would be semi-auto and all the burst variants would be burst, all the breach variants would be low RoF high damage per bullet.

Nope.
So far, all breach weapons have the same firing mode as the standard version of that weapon.
Every single one.
Breach CR should be burst.

Rifle variants do follow the aforementioned pattern, I just proved it. Heavy weapons, sidearms etc. are excluded from this. It applies to rifles only. The Minmatar's rail rifle variant would be a breach combat rifle. Although a burst breach mix would be cool, it won't fit in.

Comparable in stats but not what I was hoping for...... (less DPS more damage per hit)

Nice find.

Now how about finding something from someone who works for CCP to support your claim.
