jhp147,
The M249 is much more reliable then the M60. However I don't think the product "improved" version of the M249 is as reliable as the original version.
I don't know where you get twice the effective range as the M16. It fires the same round.
The M60 is one of the worst designs ever fielded. I'm very happy we are replacing it with the M240B (FN MAG 58).
