I am not sure but in Russian it sounds like "take aim at" range and I translated it as "effective". In one of the comparative tables it is 1372m for BAR M1922, 1500m for Degtaryev DP and 2000m for MG42. And it varies from source to source as I see now.

About that it was used as the squad base of fire you are right. And it was a light machine gun. There was no any Degtaryev MG platoons.

Thank you for feedback,
cheers
Dmitriy
