Pros

2× headshot multiplier.

High accuracy due to controllable recoil in both modes.
Strong mid-range performance due to high burst damage.

Second fastest single-shot rate of fire in the game (6.4 per second, 384 RPM, after P2020).
Decent hipfire in Burst mode.

Cons

More difficult to use in close combat due to lack of automatic fire.
