In Rust, the MP5A4 climbs almost straight up for the first 4 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 Rust the sideways recoil shifts with attachments and stance, so read the side-to-side here as a typical path, not the only one.
