Salvo is a timer between shoots. If it expires so does the salvo. First shot in the first in a sequence of timers. So stop shooting for a little bit and it will trigger again.

If I understand it correctly, a salvo is finished when the bullet spread resets to zero no?

I don't know. I've heard only second hand what a salvo is, but the original explanation came directly from a developer on Discord. It's some kind of timer that resets between shots. Whether that means resetting the bloom I don't know.

And of course nobody would happen to know how long, under what condition, or any specific details regarding this timer

The game is awful at making it's mechanics clear to the player. Back 4 Blood had all kinds of problems, but I enjoyed how you could mouseover mechanical terms, and a brief explanation of that term would appear in a pop-up.

From the lore hints mod, a salvo resets when you don't fire for a full second. Unfortunately can't confirm.

Opening Salvo works once your weapon recoil stops between each shot.
MGXII has a longer recoil per shot compared to the Headhunter Autogun.
Having more Stability helps improve the use of Opening Salvo because less recoil per shot gives it a faster recovery time to proc it again.

Also, quite a necro.
