Firstly, make sure mouse acceleration is OFF. This will feel weird at first but it's near impossible to play well with (no idea how Harrek manages to be so good with it).
This is a nice online flash game that can help with keeping your crosshair accurately on a target if you're having troubles. About the recoil, it's just practice, but if you can aim well, controlling recoil will come quickly after.
Furthermore, you mention you hit around 3 bullets on your enemy out of one clip? This could be the lingering 1.1 "unhits" bug whereby some of your shots will go through a player and he will not take damage. I believe FD's servers still allow you to test your own unhits by firing bullets and typing "!unhits" (minus the quotation marks) in game.
