Honestly, auto rifles should never have the same time to kill as other weapons because they are way to easy to use

You shouldn't have to use 3/4 of a magazine to score one kill with an AR. I'm not 100% accurate on that detail, but you need to use a ton of bullets and hit for near perfect (80%) accuracy with weapons that have the most erratic recoil patterns if not equipped with sights/perks that mitigate them. Compare that to another weapon type where you may depending on the archetype need hit between 2 to 4 headshots for optimal TtK.

Time you'll shouldn't be changed but have stability and mag size would be a great option. Side to side recoil on autos should be minimal but vertical is manageable

Thats why I say a small buff. They are easy to use but you need to maintain constant target acquisition to be effective. This is easy with high rof autos which is why I would leave the doctrine archetype alone. How many autos do you see in pvp cause I hardly see any.
