It is desirable that machine guns in section shot on greater range, as at realities (now range MG in infantry section = 12 hex).

I disagree. 12 hexes is 600meters in real life. 600meters is a long range for open sights in non-tripod mounted weapons. Our PKM SAW seldom shot over 500meters with any accuracy at normal, half upper torso sized targets. With rifles, under simulated combat, so no soft cushions and clear lines of fire, it was very difficult to shoot with any accuracy past 300meters. So I think 400m for rifles and 600m for SAWs is the upper limit of effective fire.
