Marksman Rifles are a type of weapon in Fortnite: Battle Royale. The purpose of these weapons is for medium range to long range combat, and weapons in this class mostly use
Medium Bullets.
Functionality[]
Marksman Rifles sit in-between Assault Weapons and Sniper Rifles as medium to long ranged scoped rifles. They are intended for longer range combat and reward accuracy greatly. They are hybrids as they work well in both medium and long range combat. They dont perform well in close range combat as they are mostly reliant on scoping in to use them well.
Marksman Rifles dont fare well in close range combat as they are mostly reliant on scoping in to use them well. Therefore Shotguns or Submachine Guns are usually a better choice.
