On a non-human, you have to drop either Insightful Reflexes or a DPS feat.

EDIT: since this is an HTR, I would suggest taking heavy repeater prof. as your lvl 3 feat so you can use them right away; then swap it for Rapid Shot before taking lvl 12, which is when you gain hvy repeaters free from Mechanic. Or you can tweak the feat order so you take hvy repeater @ lvl 3, Rapid Shot at 6, Precision at 9, then swap hvy repeater for Prec Shot at lvl 12.
Insightful Reflexes should be taken long before Lvl 18!

Has the OP considered an Arti Splash for free Rapid Reload, free heavy repeater prof, a lever puller puppy and possibly Rune-Arm?
