14.4 damage for a full upgrade semiatomatic rifle like m1 garand or gewher 43 fells terrible, the lack of damage vs 23+ dmg bolts or 13.2 machine guns like bar make semiauto rifle pointless, if you want a damage weapon you choose bolts, if you want rate of fire one you choose machine guns, in any case semiuto rifles are not a good choice.
in the other hand semiauto rifles like STV 40 and ZH29 feels amazing with 15.8 damage, this semiato rifles are the middle ground between a machine gun and a bolt rifle.
i think all semiatos should have this 15.8 damage in full upgrade , maybe the rate of fire should be different between early and late rifles to unlock it in the camaping, for example stv 38 should not have the +10% rate of fire perk that stv 40 have but stv 38 should have the same damage of 15.8 in full upgrade of the stv 40, so like this there will be a difference ammong stv 38 and 40
Honestly why do any guns in game have a fraction of a point of damage when they’re all 1, 2, or 3 hit kills regardless. Not like extended DPS is a thing that exists here.

stv 40 max upgrade it 15.8 damage feels much better than stv 38 max upgrade it 14.4 damage, belive it or not the difference its there and you can feel it, 15.8 damage semiauto rifles are a good choice and are middle ground between blot rifles and machine guns, 14.4 damage semiautos feels crap, its better take a bolt or a machine gun in any case.
10 damage applied is OHK.

I’m okay with current sem-autos damage. But their artificially decreased rate of fire is real nonsense.

semi auto damage is okay, it heavily overpowers the bolt action when fighting multiple enemies at once

stv 40 and zh29 are OK, because those rifles have 15.8 damage when full upgrade it, the rest (14.4 dmg rifles) are not, a LMG or a bolt action in any case, long or cqc are a better choice.
