Recoil character
The AKM has heavy vertical recoil and a noticeable horizontal drift, with a lower fire rate than 5.56 rifles. Each shot kicks harder, so the first rounds of a burst climb the most. Vertical recoil is what you compensate; horizontal spread, timing and the decision to fire stay with you.
Setting it up in PUBG URC
For the AKM plan on high compensation, especially at the start of the burst, and always run a compensator and a grip. Compensation is calculated from your sensitivity, accounts for stance (standing, crouching, prone) and is set separately for each scope — it is not a fixed macro.
Scopes
The AKM takes the red dot, 2x, 3x, 4x and 6x. The higher the magnification, the more visible the climb — the 6x value is larger than the red dot. Keep the values consistent so switching scopes doesn't throw off your hand.
Tip
Fire short 5–7 round bursts at mid range so the horizontal drift doesn't open up the group.
