Ya, I've noticed that with the PKM as well.

 

Was having a craptastic time with it when I was on TA earlier. Wasn't hitting anything except for buildings that I wasn't aiming for. lol

i have the mg36 and i love it. its way more accurate than any other support gun, you just have to keep pushing down on the muzzle to compensate for the rise.
Have you ever tried to shoot someone on a hill with the PKM. You can put the site right on their head and it fires about 3 feet below or above.

yea, it seems if the target isnt on level ground it will always somehow miss. Anyway back to the original topic im not really sure, dont play support enough to like either of them better than the other.
MG36 has now replaced what was the PKM for me.But now after using it for a while i miss the stopping power of the PKM.I can shoot every bullet from fully loaded and might take out a jeep/armor vech.,but with the PKM i'd put it down and still not over heated yet,with half my bullets.And mid range the PKM kick's butt,where as the MG36 is really only good at close ranges.But with the faster loading times/fire MG36 is hard to pass up in a close qaurter combat situtaion.
