Unless the tank is not doing their opener in tanking stance (with vit acessories) or failsucks at their job (or severely undergeared), you shouldn't have issues with ripping aggro on your MCH.

I never really find myself using feint; worse case scenario I just take off GB for one GCD to get a split shot + ammo and an auto attack. And you especially don't want to waste your ammo on feint. Once you know the fight, the need for long term mobility (at least to the point that stutter stepping or holding off of cleaner shots can't solve) is very far and few in between.
