The M416 is an Assault Rifle (AR). It is available in PUBG. It is designed for long-range sharpshooting. It uses 5.56 mm ammo similar to SCAR-L. It is also taken as an optional choice of AKM with less damage but better recoil control.
This is
the favorite rifle for most players as its recoil is very low. It will be a
perfect choice at short range and middle range.
As the
damage in PUBG depends on many factors (such as distance or shot target) different
numbers of shots are required to kill or knock down the enemy. In this article,
we will discuss the required number of shots to take down the enemy with M416

How to calculate the required number of shots?
Depending
on which level of vest or helmet is used by the enemy the damage of M416 refile
the required number of shots to take down (kill / knockdown) will be different.
Moreover, damage also varies on different shot targets (i.e. Head or Body).
Therefore,
different number of shots are required to kill or knock down the enemy. First,
let’s discuss the headshots.
Headshot
Headshot
is a very powerful shot and one headshot (if the enemy is without any helmet)
will be enough to take down with almost any types of gun.
Although,
if the enemy is with a higher level of a helmet then 2 or 3 shots are required
to take down them. So, you should always go for a headshot as you can.
In the
context of M416, this gun deals maximum damage up to 60 meters, and beyond its
damage will be dropped. From that distance, the damage will be continuously
decreased and reaches its minimum value at 445 meters.
The
tables below show the information about the required number of shots within 60
meters to knock down or kill the enemy.
