Given he has spent most of his combat training working on marksmanship, he is an extremely skilled sniper, with an effective range of nearly 5 kilometers due to the extremely powerful nature of his primary weapon. weather conditions mean next to nothing, and as long as his hawk Scratchers can fly over a target, his rifle scope will register range and positioning data needed to make a shot.

The original Ballistarium was a railgun, while this upgraded version uses more stable Gauss coil technology.
