This is a RETICULE, and that is a RETICLE. I'm using the latter to aim. And what are you using?
I always dump the SMG first chance I get no matter what other weapon I get instead. Preferably a beam rifle, plasma pistol, or carbine. Doesn't really matter. I'll even take a brute plasma rifle or a needler if I have to.
The SMG - although a cool gun - is basically useless on legendary. Even at close range where at least 90% of your shots hit, it still takes more than a full clip to strip a Brute Leader (the most common type of Brute) of his shields.
However, I will sometimes swap the AutoMag for a carbine, especially if I have a sniper or beam rifle. Sniper/beam for taking out opponents on long range, obviously, and carbine for close to medium range because the AutoMag is a joke against shields. Still love it, though.
