As long as you do not have to carry the M60, I didn't know the 249 was
related to the 60. I personally did not like hte M60 that much, as I am
more partial to the MG3/Amelis IMHO they get to concentrate the fire buch
better, I could only get the M60 to behave in "spray paint mode", I have
never used the 249 though... I heard at least has decent recoil behavior
(unlike the 60) but the cadence of fire seems to be slow -again not my
words since I have not used it-.
