Wild Coil: C
A faster and with more shrapnel than Dust Crusher? This already sounds like a good weapon on paper, BUT! The sheer LACK of power is the biggest downer here. Faster weapon does mean the weapon will run out of ammo faster too. Miss too many shots, and its over for you. Best used to reach someone afar, but try not to get caught mid to close range with this.

Wild Coil not powerful? It's basically dual-wielding Proto Buster shots that ricochet. It is INSANELY powerful. The maps that it's in are low-ceiling maps that allow bouncing. You aim it by NOT aiming (or basically all you have to do is not face your opponent) but it's so easy to kill with. I would say rank S for this weapon, easy. The non-charged shots can also be used at pointblank for moderate damage. And this thing in screws mode... (irrelevant, but shudder.)
Noise Crush is equally, if not more murderous. Duel me on MM3DW1. It's the only weapon you'll encounter me using. THIS is the "weak fast Atomic Fire", not Hard Knuckle. 80% damage in one shot. A single uncharged shot afterwards will kill, but from there you can easily switch to a faster weapon (Tomahawk for instance) to get the kill. If they escape, you can charge the Noise Crush again for a guaranteed kill. Most of the time if you're quick they won't be able to gather enough health to survive a second charged shot. Firing it directly level to yourself is easy if you use the "Center View" command - just center (level) view, fire at the closest wall. This weapon I would say A+ at the lowest, possibly S.
Scorch Wheel is not an offensive weapon, by the way (unless you use it as a supplement to Top Spin in Turbo Man stage). It's an evasive one. It has the negative quality of destroying Junk Shield but that'll be banned. The Wheel lasts long enough to give you a speed boost to get away from someone easily. As an escape weapon it's utility probably jumps to B. You can toss it behind you to deter someone but given the ammo count I wouldn't expect to get any kills with it.
I also think Cutter and Super Arm are too low. Just because a weapon requires more precision to use does not make it a worse weapon; otherwise Atomic wouldn't be so high. Arm is a potential one-shot (just play Rtist, I watched you) and Cutter emulates a one-shot real easily. I'll talk about those later.
@CutmanMike: Yes. It's much more utilitarian that way; that way if you miss, you can still get a mine on a wall. Right now it's "offensive tomahawk OR mines" and you can't use both at the same time.
