PKM

The PKM is an LMG in Wardogs that fires 7.62x54mm. It does 55 damage per hit and costs $4,500. Against an unarmored 100 HP target it needs 2 hits.
Is the PKM good?
With standard ammo it takes 2 shots to the chest to kill an unarmored player, 3 through level 2 armor and 5 through level 4.
The right ammo changes that: hollow point rounds kill an unarmored player in 1 shot, armor piercing cuts level 4 to 4 shots.
Legs are never armored, so 2 shots to the upper leg kill even a level 4 player with hollow point ammo.
No cheaper LMG matches it through level 2 armor. The M249 SAW is faster, at $3,200.
