GryphnnTo be fair, hitting anything with a gimbal, except for large ships, above 3km is just pure luck. With the travel time of the bullets added on top of that, it's even worse, even if you make them 2x faster.
I'd still go with short-range for the +75% damage, which will also conserve ammo, and only shoot when the target is below 1.8km. Even if you can only keep the target locked for half the time you could with your build. It would still have a better overall damage output since you basically land every shot on that distance and you get 75% more damage too.
But I understand your thought on long range.
I tell you what, this ship needs a funnel ship kit. So you can just scoop up your victims. And then spam only fragment cannons
You should really try long range MC sometime. The huge one are very nasty even vs small targets like eagles and vipers at ranges 3-4km. And the context of this build is not combat but trader / trade mission runner. It should be able to handle NPC pirate ships: federal piggies, FDLs, pythons, Anacondas, Vettes and Type-10s

EpisparhSakashiro will never put on her ship a weapon that requires restock
Says the guy who had to leave the hazRES after he blew all his mats on frag synthesis.

That would take awhile. Currently have 120 synths available given I haven't collected any mats in last 3 months.
In addition I can travel to the station to restock and get back and still make more kills than your pathetic beam builds

Not if you're at Beagle Point.

Oh, you killed a wing of competent eagle and vulture in anarchy system. That's brutal! /s
You know that would be done in like 10 sec with pacifier frag vulture, a bit more if you just ram them.

A system your pacifier frag Vulture wouldn't even reach without help. Snowblood can kill Condas, too, but if the game doesn't spawn any, there's hardly a thing I can do about it.
How long did you have to be Hudson's errand boy to get those pacifiers?

As with all Power Play modules - 28 days.
Prismatic shields, pacifier frag cannon, imperial hammer, Grom bomb and the famous pack hounds. 5 months and you will be done.

Strip the guns off a ship and you get to call it an explorer.
45LY range is still spoiled. You should drop an AFMU GFSD Booster and add Cargo racks to really get your jump range down.
Then call it a Saka's Legacy

But AMFU, GFDB and cargo racks total mass is 1.3t
You may need glasses though. It is not just weapons stripped down. The best jump range type-10 can make is around 50ly.

I do need glasses, but I also need to be motivated to look at something and if you really want me motivated to look at something you need to call it Saka's Legacy.
Oh, I didn't see your E grade S Boosters. NM carry on with your Uber T10 exploration build
Least you could do is drop the A grade AFMUs and put in B grade for the increased durability.... It's like you're not even trying.
