See the light, read my book, buy my grill. Its the truth, 4 round burst...try it!

Still, it's more about luck and knowing where the threshold is then skill.

Look here. This is how a 20 mm fire at 400 m at MT-LB:

This is how not to fire a a-cannon:

YouTube - CV9040, PBV302, and Pskott in Action Part 1 of 2

and so on...

If the target is close YOU WILL NOT fire in bursts.

as for overheating and shooting in bursts i'll quote myself, stuff below is about 2A42 cannon mounted on BMP-2

taken from here "technical description and exploitation instruction"

and about firing in bursts

In order so save ammo it is recommended to fire on low RoF at ground targets in bursts of next length:
distance <500m - 2-3 rounds
distance <1000m - 4-5 rounds
distance <1500m - 8-10 rounds
Main RoF for aerial targets is high RoF with burst length of 17-50 rounds

as I can judge from it overheating is not a big deal to worry about

4 round burst...try it!

and you will still eventually overheat somewhere at ~50 shots, especially if you take bmp-3

Obviously the gunner can't aim, but only video of btr 80 I found after a brief search.

imo its a low quality ammo problem, not cannon or crew
i have a 40 minute footage from one exercise "tank regiment in defence", there are some BMPs firing at long range and its far better than in that vid where round hits the ground at 100m lol
i'll look if i can upload some parts of it

not sure here, i think exercise one
