For M4 build, if you want to run a 60-round mag it's better to use the STANAG it is 400 grams lighter, has higher top loading speed , can be bartered fairly cheaply from Peacekeeper and only has 2 less ergo than a drum PMAG.
I've got near 2000 rounds of 5.45 BP just found from raids, the 120 round packs spawn really often on woods and lighthouse so you can quite easily just scav in and go fetch some rounds since nobody loots the ammo packs
Thats what I was gonna say. If you are buying 5.45 Big Peen, you're crazy. Woods and reserve. I have come out of woods and reserve with hundreds of rounds easily.
@@HenkFueltank Personally I tend to steer clear from BS, I usually try to engage on longer distances if possible so the slower bullet velocity is a big deal for me, but if I do make a close quarters gun then the BS ammo really comes in handy

Two changes for the SCAR-H based on parts added two weeks after this video was released: Use the VSS-11 stcck instead of the Retro with buttpad. 4% better recoil, 4 better ergo, half the weight. The CASV handguard and extender instead of the SRX handguard. 3% better recoil, 2 worse ergo. Considering most attachments are balanced around 4 ergo = 1% recoil, this is a fantastic trade. Similarly, the 20" vs the 16" barrel has a 4%/-9e swing, which would be considered good - although overswing is JUST noticeable.
This gun is starting to grow on me by quite a good amount. Bodies seem to just drop when you aim in their general direction. You have to have good aim though because of its lower bullet capacity. But if you are solid with your aim this gun is a ton of fun.
SR3M is actually only worth it if you use it unsuppressed. When you want to go suppressed, the Val still has the same firepower, but the suppressor is far better, and the price will be lower overall. However, playing it loud makes it an absolute beast, especially since it is as short as an SMG, and ADS with it is extremely quick; you also run faster with shorter weapons. That said, suppressed it is also a beast, but I'd still call the Val a better gun overall, and it is also more accessible since it is available on the flea.
The issue that holds many people from using the VAL is a brand new gun goes from 100 durability down to the high 80s just after a few engagements making it a very high maintenance and cost gun. The sr3m is just a tad better in this department but it still drops pretty low as well and only lasts a couple of raid until I just buy another. (I don't use anything below 95 for the most part)
The RD704 is insane this wipe. I avoided 7.62 weapons last wipe, as they were far too jumpy and there was always better choices. But the RD is fun and clean this wipe. The Mutant isnt tho. Also tried the SR3M for the first time this wipe and wow was i impressed. I had a bunch of SP6 saved up and its a lazer beam. Especially on Labs and Factory
love all your technical videos and breakdowns of what parts and why. I used to love the red ARE but it's pretty expensive for doing nothing over the regular
i used to basically run stock rpk16s before the ak12, cheap midrange high rpm guns, the ak12 just feels like a higher end, higher fire rate version. its a great gun
Gigabeef, what’s your opinion on the BMD loud combo for 762 guns. Is the maximized recoil reduction and huge boost in evoergo worth the increase in sound signature?
I've always been a fan of the Ak-12 even before PvE came out primarily for its 3rd firing mode Burst Fire. When you build it just right, having it on a 3 round burst for that extra two rounds per squeeze is nice. Especially if you target upper chest and let the let yourself be a bit loose on the recoil will always net you a headshot.
You can buy the MDR from mechanic and it comes with the 25 round mag. You can either use the mag yourself or sell it on the flea for almost as much as the MDR cost.
This game REALLY needs more variety of guns that you can buy incomplete. With durability dropping as much as it does it's nice to have a weapon that you can easily use the purchased mods to maintain a nice high durability with just buying the new lower and throwing all the mods on the new one. It's because of this i will not use other guns. I stick to all the guns that you can buy just the lower and it's a wonderful world to live in but i just wish we had a few more options other than the m1A, m4, mcx and scar l
i have a full ammo case of found in raid bp and bt so ive been using the aks ub with ok results. but that recoil was surprising. after the initial 10 rounds i doubt id hit anything more than 15-20 m away.
I've not even used it with the hybrid ammo yet as I haven't found any. But if it's the same as last wipe it's the best weapon in the game imo, especially with the mdr nerfs. As you say, not plausible for most players though, even fairly dedicated ones
Ive found a ton in marked rooms. Even if you don't take the weapon, taking the 25 round mag out is worth it every time. I use it with FMJ and it's real good.
I want to mention that Reserve has an obscene amount of bp small AK ammo. I stocked up to 2500 BP rounds while looking for Gluhar. Other big round spots (woods shack and USEC camp, MVD and Lexos on Streets) are also good to sweep.
Yes you can. Its been like that for the past 2 and a half wipes. Idk if they plan on changing it again but it's been interesting going back to old tarkov flea.
The red version of the ARE is clearly better than the gray one. I don't know why this one is sometimes cheaper on the flea... Are people afraid of the red color? I can assure you there is no way anyone can see that when you have a stock on it.
hey giga beef, quick question, how come you shy away from the ak hexagon tubular handgaurd in your builds? I am consistently confused by this, I know there must be an obvious reason that I am missing(still very new to the game), but it is about 1/4 the cost on the flea compared to the zhukov and gives similar performance. Thank you!
I think its worth mentioning that the BMD combo will give you similar recoil to the meta suppressor but cheaper and with much more ergo. Drawback is you now are loud and have to deal with muzzle flash. For some maps and some raised optics this is completely fine (like on labs with a bravo + red dot)
Random question but i cant load into lighthouse or shoreline on my pmc or scav, but i load into streets with zero issue. My game will crash when its loading loot. Boots me to desktop or loses server connection.
personally id never run an m4 buffer tube on the mcx or mpx, save the good stuff for a 416 build. the maxim stock is cheap and barely worse than the best tube and stock combo
Tactical devices with lasers give you a small but noticeable bonus towards your weapons bullet grouping. It's a tighter spread with the bonus for point firing (hip firing or firing without ADS)
I don't understand your AK12 build. It seems to me like the AK-74M is hands down better in every way (other than maybe accuracy) once you build it out. Why have you picked the AK12 over the 74M?
the raptor isn't the best charging handle, the avalanche is. Same ergo less weight. It's a nitpick but given how cheap it is (less than the raptor) you might as well use it.
Is 5.45 bp that much more uncommon on PvP? Obv you deal with players and scavs taking it but I feel like I find a shit ton of bp, bs, and bt bricks in pve
bt isnt bad on aK12 since the rpm makes up for the lack in pen and it has basically no visual recoil when ur using 1x one of the best guns to run rn cheap effective and u have constant supply of ammo using any gun that uses m80 is ass more often it takes the same amount of shot to kill class 4 with say 545 BT like i had dude tank 7 fkn m80 bullets lol
That's why you use the backpack trick with them. You can load up two in 5 seconds tops in raid. If you don't know, put any magazines you want to reload in your backpack and keep the ammo out of the backpack. Drop you back pack and use the search option on it. There you can fill the mags just like you do outside of raid and you can even load mag presets as well like this. You're welcome
@shampwoo it made the rifle slightly better on recoil by a point or two. Not sure about ergo. They look the same but it's my understanding the red tube is always slightly better.
I enjoy killing Big Pipe and finding out he has an M60 cause usually its full of M61. Easy 300 rounds as he tends to carry 2 100 round boxes in his pockets.
Kinda surprised that BMD combo wasn't mentioned. Maybe it doesn't help with sniping but for RD it's great as it's best used in short to medium ranges where you've have been heard either way.
because he's editing the build off of one of the trader's shop, and it's counting every single Scar in the shop's stack as part of the build's weight because the game is spaghetti code lol
with how available class 5 is. I hate how most ar's cap at 40 (ish) pen. even .308 is at 41 pen as far as trader rounds. I wish you could have a long reset for like 20 rounds of m61 or 995 and the sort. Nothing that allows you to fill up a mag every raid but enough to prep one mag with good ammo sparsed throughout. I like hte idea of "maining" a gun but as you stated with 5.45 you really cannot do that unless you have plentiful reserves (which you most likely do, but it shouldnt be that way!). I literally have found zero svd ammo this wipe so far (maybe like a handful of snb) making it a 7.62x54r gun with only 41 pen!! THATS HORRIBLE FOR A LARGE CALIBER GUN. And then theres ref who just says fuck it and offers you bp straight up. I don;t have arena so how am I supposed to compete with that convenience (yes i can craft, but its a dumb advantage for no reason). 7.62x51 used to be the endgame gun round because it was on guns with best in slot parts locked behind traders. Now it is objectively worse than its lower recoil counterparts. The MCX is in a good place because it has high pen thats available to the masses. But it still isn't a win button on class 5. This is a good place to be and should be the baseline. Nobody feels good buying 40 pen rounds in a class 5 meta. It should be 45-47 pen on traders for all endgame calibers with higher pen ones avail in raid or from questlocked crafts. Just dont hide it behind ref :V
Very informative. I really appreciated the different variation breakdowns with a focus on the specific parts that make a big difference.
For M4 build, if you want to run a 60-round mag it's better to use the STANAG it is 400 grams lighter, has higher top loading speed , can be bartered fairly cheaply from Peacekeeper and only has 2 less ergo than a drum PMAG.

Two changes for the SCAR-H based on parts added two weeks after this video was released:
Use the VSS-11 stcck instead of the Retro with buttpad. 4% better recoil, 4 better ergo, half the weight.
The CASV handguard and extender instead of the SRX handguard. 3% better recoil, 2 worse ergo. Considering most attachments are balanced around 4 ergo = 1% recoil, this is a fantastic trade.
Similarly, the 20" vs the 16" barrel has a 4%/-9e swing, which would be considered good - although overswing is JUST noticeable.
your knowledge on this game is unreal, a legend of tarkov
I do not CARE how much screen space it takes up, or how heavy it is, the scar is just so CLEAN 😭
Yukkk
I agree 100%. The best looking firearm in the game now thanks to the new handguard and stock
Great video, only one side note on the SCAR-H(25:56): you can get M80 at Ref lvl.3
for the 545 guns scavving lighthouse and looting ammo spawns on the rogue buildings give you a lot of bp and ppbs

for the second scar build, you can change out the butt stock to have 48 ergo and 81 recoil

Surprised the ak12 is on here, I thought it felt pretty bad this wipe and has more felt recoil than any of the 74s
To me it feels great loud on a closer quarters map. Very snappy with ergo
Ak12 is by far the best 545 AK. Just can't be cheap and buy meta attachments where you can. It makes a huge difference.
same recoil on ak 12 is garbage

Gigabeef, what’s your opinion on the BMD loud combo for 762 guns. Is the maximized recoil reduction and huge boost in evoergo worth the increase in sound signature?
It's worth the sound, but the muzzle flash is a bit much for my taste.
i use AK103 for maps with a bit of range like woods or shore line and AK104 for CQB like interchnage or customs.
I've always been a fan of the Ak-12 even before PvE came out primarily for its 3rd firing mode Burst Fire. When you build it just right, having it on a 3 round burst for that extra two rounds per squeeze is nice. Especially if you target upper chest and let the let yourself be a bit loose on the recoil will always net you a headshot.
AK12 has a 2 round burst. But yes it is fucking delicious. I love it most on interchange
