I was just wondering why UAC5 jam so much but other ballistics don't at all?
I remember in past MW games all ballistics jammed and i avoided them due to that, for my uac5 i might get 3 shots in before i get a jam or less, makes the weapon useless?

From Sarna.net, the official Battletech Wiki:

...these enhancements ... most notably allowed the weapon to fire at twice rate of the standard model. Unfortunately, besides generating twice as much heat and burning through ammunition supplies twice as quickly, the extremely high rate of fire causes ultra autocannons to vibrate violently, leading to higher incidence of weapon jams.
