1. Modding:
- GL40 (PK ll4 barter of 400k-500k cost)
- Bravo 4 or HAMR
- PK-06 or DP
- MBUS front&rearsight
- MBUS is for emergency situations where you're forced into a building and thus CQB is necessary. Take off the Bravo/HAMR, and you can use the straightforward ironsights for ranges under 25 meters.
Reason for the extra Bravo/HAMR:
Because 40mm drops hard, the gun is raised in a way that blocks your view of the target when zeroing at 50 & 100 meters like this –
(You can zero your weapon by pressing PgUp/PgDn)
However, if you use Bravo4 or HAMR under the red dot, you can get around this issue like so –
2. Ammunition
- M381/M441 are extremely expensive on flea market at around 100k per round, while peacekeeper only sells 1 round per reset. You don't need these no-brain rounds for long range shooting.
- M386/M406 are long range rounds, therefore most people don't even bother using them. This is advantageous for us, because the market price often tanks below 15k rubles like this –
M433 and M576 is inferior & useless, so disregard them.
We'll be primarily using M386 & M406, at a cheap price of under 20k ruble per shot.
3. Ranging
- Optimally, you'd develop a gut feeling of ranges in tarkov, which enables you to adjust zeroing among 25/50/100 appropriately.
- Before you develop such skill, you can refer to resources like and select the bottom right tool for displaying ranges in a circle with your current position as a center like this –
Using this tool, you'll be able to quickly understand what the ranges are to your target.
4. Clips
– Woods Shturman 250m kill & SBiH pmc kills
– Shoreline 130m pmc kill
– Customs SBiH kill (2/3)
– Customs SBiH kill (3/3 finished)
– Rather close encounter at Customs stronghold
– Demonstration of how zeroing with GL works in the game
