Summary	0006427: Very high dispersion values on M70 and M21 rifles + Scorpion and RPK-74M weirdness

Revision	2021-07-05 13:59 by Ivanowicz
Description	Data taken from config viewer, using RHS only (conversion from BI wiki - 1 mil = 0.001 dispersion): - all M70 rifles and M21A have dispersion values of 0.0021 (giving us 7.2 MOA). M70s should problably be in line with current AKMs, and M21A should be even more accurate, given that it fires 5.56 and has an 18 inch barrel - M21S has an insane value of 0.00325, giving us 11 MOA. The barrel is shorter, but it's still 0000011:0000015 inches, so it probably shouldn't be the least accurate gun in the mod. I am not familiar with real world performance of the M21 rifles, but comparing them to other 5.56 RHS guns, the A variant would probably fit somewhere around 3 MOA, with S variant at around 3.5 MOA. Other issues: - There seems to be a massive difference in accuracy between SAF and GREF Scorpion (0.0005 (1.7 MOA) vs 0.0029 (10 MOA), with the second one being a bit more sensible I think ;) ), - I might be reading the config wrong here, but it seems that the new RPK is insanely accurate in single shots - only 0.0002 dispersion (0.7 MOA).

EDIT: Must have misread the value for RPK, it seems to have dispersion of 0.0009 (3 MOA).
