Actually Dimbulb, the whole point of a high ROF is for engaging a moving target which, in the case of a Squad Automatic Weapon is not, at least not according to US Doctrine a necessity made applicable through a high ROF. You want to clip guys down effectively on the move? Use an MG-3 or MG-42. They spit the lead out at 1200 shots per minute! For GPMG purposes, that generally gives you an 8 shot trigger burst. There's a powerful psychological effect given off by such a rate. It terrified US GI's into submission in France and Germany, you'd be scared of just *Ziiiiiiiiiip* and then blood and parts flying every which way.
