I like the M240 too. The machineguns are very accurate. But I find them to be best usefull upto a range of 3-400 meters.

Far away targets are almost impossible. You have to calculate your recoil and start aiming below your target. The father away the target the more difficult to hit, because when you calculate the recoil and aim below your target, the gun raises up and the muzzleflashes take away the sight you have on your target.

I sometimes wonder too, how somebody can kill you at 900 meters with a machinegun.

But I guess, most of it is pure luck. Anyway using a machinegun, it is best to put out small burst instead of rattling it away. This improves aiming too.

Since TeamSabre I prefer to give myself a G36 when I go gunner. Mainly because of the small opticals with the red dot.
