THe great thing about the STG is that the single burst is quite well clustered so you can generally kill with a single burst out to quite a good range, and even if you dont it has greater suppressive effect.

In most cases you have to shoot the enemy as fast as possible before he does the same to you. In semi mode you have to use extra fraction of second to make sure you hit in the right spot because if you don't you often don't get a second chance. In auto mode you can fire faster to the general direction of the enemy and if you know how to compensate the recoil it is almost certain that you score multiple hits to the enemy in a very short time, i.e. before he has a chance to aim and shoot you.
If you have an StG you should either be inside the capzone or outside their spawn. There is no reason to be in semi auto in those situations.
I have no problem getting hits at 150-300 meters with the STG
its just that the ppsh spits out a lot more bullets at a time than the stg44 does. this adds up
