Ryan Lemay

The L-AB 330 stands out among a pack of impressive Sniper Rifles in Modern Warfare 2, but only if it has the best loadout. Here’s the best L-AB 330 loadout in MW2, complete with attachments, Perks, and equipment.

Sniping is back and better than ever in Modern Warfare 2. Ground War returns for the first time since Modern Warfare 2019, introducing five 32v32 maps. Sniper Rifles excel in long-range combat, matching perfectly with the game’s larger-scale environments.

However, the L-AB’s lightweight build also makes it viable in tight quarters 6v6 combat. Fans of quick scoping will immediately feel at home with this versatile gun.

If you want to maximize the L-AB 330’s untapped potential in Modern Warfare 2, then you need our best loadout for the weapon.

Best L-AB 330 Modern Warfare 2 loadout

  • Barrel: 23.5″ Fluted R-67
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Lazer
  • Optic: SZ Bullseye Optic
  • Stock: ZLR T70 Pad Extension
  • Comb: Aim-Assist 406

The best L-AB loadout starts off with the 23.5″ Fluted R-67 Barrel, as it increases damage range, bullet velocity, and movement speed at the cost of aim-down sight speed (ADS) and recoil control. The FSS OLE-V Laser and Aim-Assist 406 Comb offset the Barrel by increasing sprint to fire speed and aim down sight speed.

The ZLR T70 Pad Extension Stock also increases ADS speed and sprint speed. We went with the SZ Bullseye Optic because of its increased ADS speed and very small sniper glint, but it comes down to personal preference.

Maximizing damage range, bullet velocity, and aim down-sight speed is essential for any Sniper Rifle loadout.

Best L-AB 330 Modern Warfare 2 class: Perks & Equipment

  • Base Perk 1: Tracker
  • Base Perk 2: Battle Hardened
  • Bonus Perk: Focus
  • Ultimate Perk: High Alert
  • Lethal: Proximity Mine
  • Tactical: Stim

Tracker allows you to track enemies and land easy kills on unsuspecting enemies. Battle Hardened helps protect you from players pushing you out of sniping positions, nullifying the effects of any thrown equipment, including Snapshot Grenades.

Focus reduces flinch while aiming down sights and extends hold breath duration, an essential for any sniper loadout. High Alert spots enemies out of your view, which will come in handy when focusing all of your attention on positioning and holding angles.

A Proximity Mine holds off players from approaching your sniping perch, while the Stim retains its healing properties that players have come to love over the years to get you straight back into a fight.

The L-AB 330 excels in short and long-range engagements.
