Which weapon uses Energy ammo and is a marksman rifle?

The story behind the answer

The Triple Take is the Energy-ammo marksman rifle in Apex Legends. Its name refers to its three-projectile firing pattern: each trigger pull sends three shots in a horizontal spread, making it effective against targets at medium and long range.

The weapon originally used sniper ammo, but Apex Legends later reorganized ammunition categories and placed the Triple Take in the Energy-ammo pool. It can be charged to tighten the spread, improving precision at the cost of charge time. This gives it a distinctive role between a conventional marksman rifle and a shotgun-like close-range weapon.

A common mix-up is the Charge Rifle, which also uses Energy ammo but is classified as a sniper rifle. The G7 Scout and Sentinel are marksman and sniper weapons respectively, but they use Light and Sniper ammo rather than Energy ammo. The Triple Take is also notable for being one of the game’s earliest energy-based precision weapons.
