Through the middle part of the game, the Bizon is more useful than the M4A1 primarily because of the limited supply of 5.56mm ammo for the M4A1.
With a laser scope and rifle scope, the Bizon can be surprisingly deadly. My IMP merc could usually drop a bad guy with a single shot to the head. Or if that failed, he could hit 5 of 5 shots when bursting to the torso (he doesn't even have auto weapons skill), and he could shoot off a lot of bursts before having to reload. His burst accuracy is not very good with the M4A1 as 2 or 3 of the precious 5.56mm bullets will usually miss.
Now that I'm into the southern part of the map, I'm not finding ammo for the Bizon anymore, and 5.56mm ammo has become plentiful at Bobby Ray's. Also, the enemy's armor has improved, and I found that the 9mm ammo is sometimes not very effective anymore. I've reluctantly retired most of my Bizons.

M4A1's burst penalty is EIGHT, Bizon's is 4 bud. And yes, I've had FIVE bursts with a Bizon. The range is inconsequential when taking a sector solo at night since the majority of your shooting will be fairly close. Even more important in those situations is NOT having to reload when it's likely you may have to off 4 or 5 guys without a chance to stop and reload.
And a burst from the Bizon while not doing as much damage as an M4, in my experience is still almost as deadly.
I've found the Bizon more effective in that situation than the M4 or M4A1, of which near the end of the game I have a total of ONE with a PSO since I've only found 1 adaptor in the entire country.
Point is, I've had much more success using a Bizon on solo night ops missions than using the M4. At least I've used both and have a basis for comparison. By your own admission you've never used the Bizon. We all have our different styles, so enjoy your Bizon. Some thoughts though:
* I have more scoped M4A1s than mercs. I found the parts all over the place and you can buy everything you need in Rudesa.
* I find it really useful to be able to do a silenced aimed headshot out to and beyond range 25 and to do 30 damage when I do. Two of those drops anyone, no matter what armour he's wearing. I'd estimate 75% of my shooting falls into that category.
* I also find the extra 7 points of damage useful, if not essential. 23 damage is all very well in the early and mid games, but not enough later on, especially on expert. I've found SMGs like the Bizon become pretty useless late game, at least in other mods and its probably more so in this mod with EOD armour.
* burst penalties become insignificant as you reach high mk, especially as compared with a weapon that's a lot more accuarate to start with. Also, if you have auto weapons (not that you need to), the difference is halved
