Here’s the best LA-B 330 loadout in Modern Warfare 3
Looking for the best LA-B 330 loadout in Modern Warfare 3?Although there are arguably better sniper rifles out there, the LA-B 330 still holds up as one of thebest sniper rifles in Modern Warfare 3, especially once you invest a little time in choosing the right attachments.
The LA-B 330 stands out due to its fast quickscoping ability and lightweight appeal, making it a good choice for mobility and stability. For the best LA-B 330 loadout inCall Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, see below. We’ve chosen the best attachments and equipment choices to get the most out of this sniper build.
Why use the LA-B 330 in MW3?
The LA-B 330 has a good amount of stability, handling and range but is usually outclassed by other snipers. For this reason, we’ve prioritised a build that caters to a quickscoping loadout that further enhances ADS speed, range and accuracy to create the ultimate sharpshooter.
Whilst you’ll have to put in a bit of extra effort to unlock the final barrel attachment, the16" XLR Executor 80 Barrel, it’s well worth it. Although it will slightly lower the gun’s effective range, it will boost the rifle’s bullet velocity and ADS speed - a very unusual but beneficial combination of traits for a single attachment.
TheFSS OLE-V Laseris a favourite pick of ours as it will boost ADS and sprint-to-fire speeds, whilst also lowering the amount of idle sway on the LA-B 330. This balances out with theAim-Assist 406Comb, which increases idle sway a touch in exchange for even more ADS and sprint-to-fire speed, which we can now afford.
TheZLR T70 Pad Extensionon the Stock boosts ADS speed further. Lastly, theSchlager 4Xis the smallest Optic possible to attach to the LA-B 330 and gives useven moreADS speed while also giving us a clean Optic for both mid-range and long-range shots.
FSS Hurricane, Lockwood 300.
As with most builds that prioritise a long-range weapon, we would recommend you pair it with something closer ranged to deal with the up-close-and-personel encounters where a sniper just won’t cut it. You’d be best picking one of thebest shotgunsorSMGsin Modern Warfare 3. TheFSS Hurricaneis always a standout pick due to its formidable damage output, substantial 50-round mag and quick rate of fire, making it a stellar pick.
If you’d prefer a good shotgun for your close encounters, we recommend theLockwood 300, an absolute beauty in terms of damage output, especially when paired with the Maelstrom Dual Trigger. This attachment essentially forces the gun to fire both shells at once, instantly doubling its damage potential.
Overkill Vest, Marksman Gloves, Covert Sneakers, Blacklight Flashlight, Decoy Grenade, Frag Grenade.
As you’ll want to equip a good short range weapon alongside the LA-B 330 and cover all distances, we recommend theOverkill Vest. Thisvestallows you to equip two primary weapons, increases weapon swap speed and allows reloading whilst sprinting, a combination of impressive perks from just one vest. We like to pair this with theMarksman Glovesfor reduced sway and flinch while ADS, something you can reap the benefits of more than other players whilst using a sniper build.
For yourbootof choice, we recommend theCovert Sneakerswhich will eliminate your footsteps and ensure maximum stealth whilst moving to and from cover and lining up shots with your LA-B 330. Additionally, with yourGearof choice, we think theBacklight Flashlightis perfect for a sniper loadout. This item allows you to see recent enemy footsteps, perfect if you’re looking to stalk enemies across the map and hone in on your kills.
When choosing yourTacticalandLethaloptions, consider theDecoy Grenadeto sow confusion amongst the enemy. This will essentially fake the sensation of gunfire, movement and radar signatures, leading enemies in an opposite direction to either fall right into your line of sight or buy yourself some extra time to retreat. Additionally, theFrag Grenadeis always a worthy pick and something of a staple in Call of Duty for its high impact, damage and ability to save you in a pinch if enemies are closing ranks around you.
