le Pelington 703 The Sniper Rifle can be unlocked without going too far through the 55 rank progression system. At Rank 4, Create-A-Class immediately unlocks and awards a handful of starting weapons to the player. The Pelington 703 is one such weapon.
Here are our recommended loadouts for building the Entry Sniper Rifle into a Beast that can stand at a variety of engagement distances. We offer two different loadouts depending on whether you prefer a more aggressive approach, jumping between near and far targets, or if you tend to hang back and aim hard.
Best Pelington 703 Gear - Basic Multiplayer Modes
- Barrel - 26,5 ″ Tiger Team
- Unlocks at weapon level 48
- Underbarrel – Infiltrator handle
- Unlocks at weapon level 15
- Magazine - Fast charger
- Unlocks at weapon level 16
- Manipulate - Airborne elastic band
- Unlocks at weapon level 53
- Stock - Raider Path
- Unlocks at weapon level 54
Getting all the parts in this loadout will take some time, as several attachments are unlocked towards the end of the weapon level progression. Combining the above attachments will ensure a quick ADS time, even with the nerves that hit snipers between beta and launch. Charging prioritizes mobility and responsiveness, allowing rapid response to hostile contact.
le 26,5 ″ Tiger Team The barrel carries a host of benefits. Reload speed, damage, bullet speed, and rate of fire all see a buff. These characteristics are essential for reacting quickly to emerging situations. The sniper goes from 5 to 4 hits before requiring a reload, but this limitation is partially corrected by another accessory.
le Infiltrator handle The attachment under the barrel has no drawbacks. Player speed is increased by 5% in three categories: movement speed, fire movement speed, and aim movement speed. This attachment allows the operator to remain mobile on the smaller main cards.
le Fast charger Magazine also carries no negatives. A 30% increase in reload speed is provided. Since the recommended barrel removes a bullet from the default count, the increased reload speed counteracts the reduction by limiting the impact of more frequent reloading.
le Airborne elastic band The handle is an absolute must. The operator gains 90% flinch resistance, making it infinitely easier to maintain a target while catching fire. On top of this priceless buff, ADS gets a slight boost and it can be maintained while lying down. The disadvantages, a loss of firing movement speed and sprint firing time, are mitigated by other accessories.
le Raider Path The stock increases the sprint time to shoot, more than compensating for the chosen grip, and aiming for movement speed. Mobility remains a priority even when targeting sites. Hip shot accuracy shouldn't even ring on anyone's radar. No-scoping can create fun highlight rolls, but they're far from a reliable source of consistent kills.

For snipers digging around the periphery of maps, this loadout sacrifices ADS speed in favor of general weapon control and bullet speed. When taking photos from other sections of the map in Fireteam, the increased bullet travel time of the loadout reduces the need to steer targets hard. Having less scope swing and recoil pairs well with a larger magazine, allowing for quick tracking shots.
le Combat Reconnaissance 27,2 ″ The barrel dramatically improves bullet speed by 75%. Players will have to contend with a slight influence from the extra range, but it's not a terrible price to pay to eliminate the need for a larger target at range.
le bipod The attachment below the bar keeps vertical and horizontal recoil in line. This will allow for more accurate tracking shots, as the reticle will not deflect as much after the shot. The slight impact on movement speed in the sprint shouldn't be too noticeable as this loading revolves around finding vantage points to settle down.
le Salvo 9 Round Fast Mag The magazine adds a larger pool of ammo and fire available before reloading becomes necessary. The added bonus of the magazine is that reloading is faster than manual feed cartridges with the bolt options. ADS time is reduced, but loading isn't for those trying to take on enemies quickly. Instead, it's built around staying within range for longer periods of time.
le Airborne elastic band The handle connects the two different loads. This is because of flinch's invaluable resistance bonus. Getting caught in a hail of bullets won't prevent you from keeping the reticle on target.
le Stock of combat SAS throws some mobility to an otherwise fixed play-style loadout. The main point is the 40% increase to target movement speed. This will allow players to reposition faster or make themselves harder to hit without removing sight of the target.
