There is no M-16 machine gun. There is the M-249 Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW) which fires the same ammo as the M-16 and there is the M-60 Machine gun.
The M-60 can fire 550 rounds per minute.
The M-249 can fire up to 850 rounds per minute if the barrel is changed out every minute.
Actually according to http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/m249.htm the m249 can fire up to 1,000 rounds per minute, the new Heckler & Koch XM-8 assault rifle (the future replacement of the M-16) can fire up to 750 rpm, and the M-16 (which does exist; to the person above me) according to http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/m16.htm fires 800 rpm.

Are M16 machine guns?
In a way the M16 is a machine gun, but it can also do three round burst and semi automatic. civilians are not allowed to have automatic m16s unless you have an automatic weapons permit, but you can have a semi automatic M16. (an AR-15 is almost like an M16 and much cheaper if you're looking to buy one.)
