Seems to me that a "perfectly" balanced rifle will more likely to have muzzle rise during rapid or full-auto fire - personally, I'd rather have a muzzle heavy rifle in for this purpose. Now, for hunting or long-range target scenarios, I think I'd rather have a more balanced rifle. Those are just my thoughts - definitely subjective.
