m-60 machine gunner tips?

i like the gun because most of the time when you get killed its when you are reloading and if you dont have to reload and they do. You have the advantage

after 3 mags have been shot through, you will have 3 mags still but they will have like 3 bullets each so you need to walk on a body using the same ammo to fill the mags.

I have tried NUMEROUS times in the last couple of weeks to use the machine guns in prone.. I haven't gotten one kill! I've been killed every time.. Wait, I actually think I killed one guy and lived but I definately got killed without killing like 20x more..

The aim doesn't seem to be better, the crosshairs seem to actually move slower when your in prone.. ugh..

Maybe it would work better if I had another teammate camping with me.

So anyone who uses this in prone got any tips? Is the secret to prone and lean or something? Get a teammate to set up in another spot near you? Honestly, I don't want to put down this whole prone with the machine guns thing but I really can't get it to work for me..

I think that it depends on surprise. If you're in a tunnel and you're prone, you could shoot the guy when he comes around the corner and he wont know what hit him, but if you're in the open, you'll be spotted and killed too quickly.

Then again every "tip"/"strategy"/"tactic" depends on the situation.
