The best (and in my opinion the only) way to shoot with an SR8 is to work on the "jerking" aim. I see a lot of people that move the crosshair smoothly towards the target and aim the chest or the head and then they shoot.
It looks nice, and it's good aiming, for a game like CoD. But in UrT it's all about speed, peek around the corner, spot the enemy, quickly jerk the mouse towards him, and as soon as it seems your crosshair is on him. shoot. Almost in the same moment as you fire, start taking cover.
Cause there really is no need to stay exposed longer then you have to. Sure there's a good chance to miss, but even if you do, your ass is already safe behind a wall.
I think it all depends on someones reflexes, how quickly can you spot an enemy and how long does it takes your brain to tell your hand to move the crosshair.
I don't like using autos, mainly cause my mouse is rather heavy, and my hand is a bit heavy. So when i hit fire button i press the mouse down so hard i can't move it around anymore. With an SR8 i can smoothly move around and if someone pops out, i don't have to press and hold, just click and run as hell.
