All automatic weapons in general dominate the killfeed simply because they have superior DPS compared to anything else on the battlefield and the only way of changing that is to make bolt actions consistently oneshot even the super soldiers on a simple torso shot, which they generally do not so they are not worth using.

Making weight matter more might help. Not just weapon weight but ammo weight.
IRL automatics love to jam as well, though I’m not sure whether that should actually be implemented.
I prefer gameplay to remain skill based, that’s why I still hate the reload jam on the kar98k as you might push out of cover thinking you will be reloaded but random chance says no and gets you killed…
having to account for random chance = lowering skill ceiling.
