MK-47 Mutant spray pattern

In Escape from Tarkov, the MK-47 Mutant climbs almost straight up for the first 6 rounds, drifts to the right, then sweeps hard to the left, tightening into a jitter as the magazine empties. Here's the shape, the numbers, and how to control it — then drill it into muscle memory on SprayTrace.

Your mouse path — start on the crosshair and follow it down. The bullets climb the opposite way; this is the movement that cancels them.

A characteristic recoil model that captures the weapon's real climb, direction and rhythm for training — not a pixel-exact plot of the in-game spray. In Escape from Tarkov the sideways recoil shifts with attachments and stance, so read the side-to-side here as a typical path, not the only one.

How to control it

Controlling the MK-47 Mutant spray

  1. Pull down to cancel the climb. The MK-47 Mutant rises about 12.0° over its first burst — drag straight down to keep the crosshair on target as it climbs.
  2. Counter the horizontal sweep. After the climb the pattern swings 6.0° across — the spray drifts right, so ease left first, then pull hard right as it sweeps back left.
  3. Reset between bursts. Recoil fully resets after about 0.45s off the trigger — tap-fire or burst at range, spray up close.
  4. Drill it, then let it vary. At 600 RPM a full 28-round spray plays out in ~2.8s. Trace it in SprayTrace at 20% speed and ramp to full, then switch to the Wander drill: it keeps this climb and re-rolls the sideways kick each run, closer to how the gun behaves across attachments and stances.
