Which Sight To Use? – Guide – Escape from Tarkov You probably want to run PS ammo which is a pretty decent early game ammo. You might want to run it without a pistol grip or muzzle brake and add those on after you survive and loot a couple runs. You slowly build up your gun and as your survive more and more raids you add more pieces to your gun. This is a budget gun and meant to be done modular. The main difference between the two is that the hunting rifle version SKS allows you to have a dovetail mount, and the non hunting rifle version does not.
For new players just starting out trying to stack their rubles, feel free to refer to our SKS modding guides below for some budget friendly weapon builds to carry you through the early levels. Escape from Tarkov has a variety of different weapons to pick from, mod and take out into combat.
