SL4TH

Overview
The SL4TH is a Light Machine Gun chambered in 5.56. As the name would imply, quite heavy, slow, and reasonably fearsome. It's damage is good, as is the norm for the 5.56 weapons. It sports medium-low recoil, so it can be quite viable for longer range engagements.

Magazine capacity is fairly average for the LMG class, at 45 rounds, with 135 rounds in reserve, or 3 mags. The drum mag attachment will take this to 90 rounds, so it's great for tackling hoards of enemies trying to rush objectives etc.

Strategy
While the SL4 is one of the less versatile options in the LMG category, it excels in the recoil and damage department, so you'll want an optic that can work out to a mid-far range. The versatility of the MTEK hybrid optic is a great offering, allowing you to switch magnification options depending on the situation. If you want to reduce the weapons recoil even further, the classic combo of the muzzle brake + vertical grip can also be of some use here. As for ammo, the drum mag will ensure you can drill as many targets as possible before needing to reload, however this can be your personal preference.
