    I’m always 50/50 with bolts. Either I spawn in and someone with a Ump is already way to close and rips me up or I get 6 or 7 clean long range kills. It’s never an in between

    With the mosin and using the 3.5pu scope given the 7.62x54r ammo that we have in game; I strongly advise setting your default range to 100m. For whatever reason everything defaults to 50m in game. (which is ridiculous for magnified optics 100m should be the default for anything above 1x unless it's a fixed prism like the ACOG then a 36 yard or 33m zero is preferred.)
    Anyway, if you notice, a mosin with iron sights defaults to 100m. This is because at 100m the 7.62x54r trajectory is a laser beam. Since the rework of the ammo trajectories, those rounds all have damn near that same trajectory. Even with BS @785m/s and SNB/PS @875m/s their fight path up to 100m is flat as that discrepancy in velocity is almost negligible at that range.
    Given all that info, the 3.5pu scope designed for the mosin was intended to utilize that known trajectory at 100m of the rounds to make it easier for someone to shoot both with and without the optic. 100m aim for the head. 200m aim for the top of the head. 300m aim for an apple on top of the head. (6.5cm)
    Having used a mosin IRL. (Both with and without the 3.5pu) I can tell you that out of all the ammo in game, BSG has the 7.62x54r rounds closest to their IRL counterparts.

      @@RamenStyle You're welcome. Thank you for taking the time to read it and acknowledge my work.
      There's very few instances, even in the real world, where a scope and rifle are so perfectly designed for one another as it is with the mosin and it's pu scope. The only other two I can really consider "made for *this* specific platform would probably be the PSO scopes that were designed for the AS-Val/VSS 9x39mm, the PSO-1M2-1, and the original PSO-1 designed for the SVD/Dragonov 7.62x54r. Both of which have reticles designed specifically for their respective platforms, shooting their specific round. I do hold on to hope that eventually BSG will change the PSO scopes in game to reflect the real world usage.
      (The third PSO scope seen in the game is a real variant used with the AK platform for 7.62x39mm. I don't consider it in the same vein as the other two because it's just the PSO-1M2-1 sightly tweaked for 7.62x39mm trajectory, as opposed to being actually manufactured with exact specifications.

    I love the kind of sniping featured in this video, the kind that actually takes skill. Constant repositioning, map knowledge, being able to push gunshots. I find these engagements really fun especially when the opponent has a sniper as its a constant reposition, peak, try and find each other, repeat until one is dead. I hate the sniping where the person sits in a bush and waits for an easy kill. It's not fun for either end and is just a cheesy way to get a kit. Video was great.

      It is always a mix of both for any sniper. Also if you think about it from whoever is getting killed by this their viewpoint is just some dude bush camping. Any skilled sniper in the game plays exactly like this and we regularly get called campers and bush wookies despite regularly stalking, repositioning, and cutting off our prey. I do love a good bush or rock but that is only 25% of the actual sniper gameplay. People just don't know that without seeing it from the snipers view like you do here.

    Personally for me I’ve always loved bolty’s. For example last wipe I had m700 mastery. I came to tarkov off around 3k hours on vanilla DayZ so I was very used to the play style. For me I usually run two guns when sniping, usually bolty/smg sometimes an AR. Being able to swap from the seemingly defenseless sniper to a guy who’s in your face with an MP7 is the most rewarding play style for me. Winning 1v5’s on woods by just rotating both angles and play styles is my favorite thing on tarkov.

      Bolt action sniper with a silenced KEDR with flesh dmg ammo was my go-to for a cheap sniper loadout. I found I was either far enough away on most maps to use the sniper rifle, and if I ran into someone it was super close anyways so I could spray the KEDR to mess them up... and if they were a lightly armored scav usually just body them.

    No one talks?.. There are lot of bolters in Tarkov, it just takes time to get a dvl or orsis. And now, there is a magnum bolt rifle for us and new sv stock with sexy ergo and light weight.
    Bolter players in Tarkov get more results than DMR, because you usually don't have second chance, so you learn discipline, you wait for a shot. You are more precise, better at manovering, your senses are sharper. I do perform better with mosin, than fully tuned m1a. Semi auto kills your sharpened skills, you get back to bad habits, run'n'gun

    This has been my main playstyle for about 1000 hours. It's soo much more fun. I love it when my enemy does the same thing because when they don't I always win or they run away(or i get third partied but thats tarkov for you). My only advice to add on to this video is if you're going to silhouette you need to move constantly to not get headshot otherwise go in front of the hill so that its behind you and don't move(only do this if you blend in).

    One thing that really helps that isn't talked about here, and only comes with experience, is learning the sounds that different guns make. You mentioned an SVD, and M4, and the Mosin, beginners won't know the difference between the sounds of the guns until they get some time under the belt, but yes all of that information is very valuable when you're sniping, looting, listening, etc. to paint a full picture of what is happening and has happened. Great video

    love bolty gameplay. Being light weight, able to move around with minimal noise even when you do shoot. Even if your rifle is loud you don't give your opponents much info unless you fire multiple shots before moving. My fear is just running into people at random, "what the heck are you doing out here!?" Like you're vids/advice.

    I got my first SBIH this wipe on shoreline yesterday wtih an AKM and a pilad on the rear sight while trying to do the punisher quest. I was all shot up and on pain killers and dehydrated trying to get extract when I saw a two man and got a super lucky headshot before the second guy closed the distance and shot me up further. I didn't have a chance, but a kill is a kill. I'm looking forwards to when I finish the punisher stuff and get to the SBIH focused gameplay. Bolts are a ton of fun!

    I've done my fair share of this style of play because its cheap, and very effective if you play it right. And that's the main reason I would encourage everyone to play almost an entire wipe with just snipers and pistols, cause it forces you to learn only to fight on your terms, and not feel bad for getting out of dodge when its not.

    It's nice to see snipers getting some recognition, this is my favorite playstyle too. I highly recommend getting used to using the range finder, and actually zeroing your gun on the go, it makes a world of difference as you can leave the guessing out of the game, especially at really long ranges. Also, while the mosin and the VPO are cheap and accessible, I highly recommend the SV-98 especially now that you can put a suppressor on it. MOA is king at long ranges.

      This sounds stupid but I kinda run a 100 zero and use the scope from there. I play a lot of lighthouse and I kinda just know the ranges of the areas I frequent. Usually running m61 or m80 I'll zero at 100 or 150 and just hang a little high and let the bullet do the rest

      @inkmav4687 Рік тому

      Do you mean the AXCM (.338 Lapua bolt action)?? Because for many wipes now you've been able to put a suppressor on the SV-98, difference this wipe is the more modular high ergo variant of said gun.
      Anyway, I agree with you. Having the range finder on my scope mounts or as a handheld standalone has helped me tremendously. Hell, because of the rangefinder I nailed 345m, 330m, and 377m headshots on Woods. If I hadn't zeroed my scope I'd have had a harder time doming those kids

    • @RamenStyle
      @RamenStyle  Рік тому +6

      Glad you resonate with this! Sniping, I feel, boils down to a ton of map knowledge and anticipation (outside of the obvious skill of hitting our shots). What I mean is, knowing where a player may be headed towards based on info you gather. Also a ton of patience. What isn't seen in this video is the multiple raids where I lost my target and came home empty or getting slapped constantly. But I tend to realize that most of my losses as a sniper are usually because I didnt trust my gut (ex. "I should've waited a little longer" or "I should've repositioned")

    4:55 - good idea. But could be that he's also tactic-savvy and you can't implement your advance in long-range weapon. So instead of shooting, a good tactic could be - try to reposition to the nearest cover - 2-3 meters in a fraction of second while keeping an eye on him. Thus, you'll have him in a crosshairs while he has to pick or maneuver.
    BUT anyway, well, played, Bro !

    I play alot of solo bolty action raids I always I mean always bring a smg side arm just because I like to push hard through buildings and close quarters areas to get loot and what not or when I’m in my “sniper hide” and someone walks up on me or if my cover gets blown and get pushed I have something to defend myself with in close quarters. Because solo sniping run into a lot of teams and if you get one or miss your shots they try and find and push you so more times then not it comes in handy. But patients and listening looking for movement helps over with planning and taking the right shots tracking becomes a thing if you see someone off in the distant and have to change positions it’s really fun being able to handle all situations and anything a team can throw at you.

    Last wipe I didn't even pay the 50k Euros for the sniper skill, I just enjoyed sniping and put the 12 million roubles towards kits to try and improve rather than pay what most consider to be a fine. So much fun sniping with the m700, and I will probably do the same thing this wipe, although I am going to change how I snipe. It is my favorite part of tarkov.

  • @Swarm509

    First off I am a terrible shot. I don't have great hand-eye coordination for the "snap shots" or super accurate fast shooting when things are fast and crazy, but long range bolt-action shooting is a ton of fun when you can line up targets and hit them. Or figure out where a player will go/be and be lined up. I use to do this all the time on old woods with teammates, typically overlooking Lumber Mill, with us watching all directions to cover each other. I should really try it again, it really doesn't cost much ingame (you can almost go in with light/cheap equipment) and a backup SMG.

    Love you videos, but question. How do you get better at tracking someone? For example I spot a pmc causing some noise, see him for a split second, then he's gone for the rest of the raid. This happens more times than not for sure.

    • @RamenStyle
      @RamenStyle  Рік тому +4

      Great question man. It's a lot of map knowledge in a sense of anticipating what your opponent is up to based on common behavior or footpath of most PMCs. Example, anticipating that his extraction is probably on the other side of the map, so I'll anticipate him to slowly make his way there -- and I'll also make educated guesses which landmarks/hotspots he's hitting up along the way. Sometimes it helps thinking "what quest is he on?". All this compounds over time. Trust your gut to where you think he's headed. Dont get me wrong, I've guessed wrong many times as well and I just lose my targets. But you get better at it as you go!

    • @RamenStyle
      @RamenStyle  Рік тому +4

      And to add, when it comes to aggressive players pushing me: I'll always reposition and get an angle on my last known position. Sometimes kill-hungry PMCs over commit to looking for you. A lot will assume you're hiding in a bush or something. You can use that to your advantage if you're able to reposition discreetly and snipe your last known position - you'll find your target scouring the area for you

    How do you think zeroing effects the guns in Tarkov? Especially bolt action early game guns like the mosin and VPO? I’ve noticed that on the VPO the zeroing is off and on, I’ve used the range finder and zeroed accordingly and was still hitting high or low when crosshairs are on center mass. If I leave it at 50m I can adjust but at longer ranges it’s a gamble for me.

    • @RamenStyle
      @RamenStyle  Рік тому

      So zeroing does work BUT theres still the variable of your gun's MOA, bullet velocity, and muzzle velocity. Especially the VPO that has slower bullets compared to other snipers, it can get tricky. For the VPO, I generally snipe at a max range of 150m. Anything more than 150m, I cant trust it anymore 😂

You seem to move a lot during your gameplay, which puts you at disadvantage by default.

Putting pressure is important). Most of the time it was Inter because of limited exfills (50/50). But we stopped after a while, too much time consuming/boring.
