Best weapons loadout for a combat python?

[Daniel Plainview]

I normally use 2 grade 3 multicannons, 1 grade 3 beam laser, and 2 grade 2 burst lasers, which was alright.
I recently switched to 1 grade 3 beam laser, 2 grade 3 burst lasers and 2 grade 2 rail guns, which i'm not enjoying half as much as i thought i would.
Suggestions for a really good loadout? (Overlong stories about effective usage of said loadouts very welcome )

oh let me edit my post here i changed my loadout today and i will have to say this is now my new favorite Python loadout

3 Grade 5 Large Effecient Beam Laser Gimbled
2 Grade 5 Medium Effecient Beam Lasers Gimbled
Grade 5 overcharged power plant
Grade 5 Charge Enhanced Power Distributer

on any medium or smaller NPC ship on the first pass with 4 pips to weapons there shields are down and are now at about 70% hull second pass they are dead. smaller ships like eagles and sidewinders it pops them on the first pass.

i am only using 77% or my power reserves so there is no problem powering this setup and there is no ammo to worry about.

With my pirate Python i have:

2x Medium seekers
2x Large canons (high yield shells)
1x Large beams

Does the job nicely.

One good thing about the Python is lots of room for experimentation.

I had 5x PAs, which was fun for a while, but my aim with fixed weapons sucks badly.

I use 2x3c beams, 2xmedium multi, 1x large multi.
For longer stay in combat; 2x3c beams, 2xmedium pulse, 1xlarge multi

something that has worked all around for me is
2x grade 3 gimbled MCs
2x grade 2 seeker missiles
and 1x graed 3 plasma accelerator
it puts out a good bit of damage if you can get them in front of you.

Also, in CZ, its even more important to remember damage drops off over range (unless you are using long range mod).

You want to be doing the utmost damage as you can, so don't waste ammo firing at long range. Get up close and personal.

3 Large Shock Cannons and 2 medium incendiary multicannons. All Gimballed.

Not gonna be winning a war with this, but you can shred a single target in like 4 seconds if they're stupid enough to get into your line of sight.
