Best SVT-40 Vanguard loadout
Activision- Muzzle: F8 Stabilizer
- Barrel: Kovalevskaya 800MM BO3
- Optic: Slate Reflector
- Stock: Empress Crown
- Underbarrel: SMLE Pistol Grip
- Ammo Type: Lengthened
- Rear Grip: Fabric Grip
- Proficiency: Vital
- Kit: Fully Loaded
To kick off the best SVT-40 loadout, use the F8 Stabilizer as it will help increase the damage range and give you a higher chance to kill enemies in two bullets. Pair it up with the Kovalevskaya 800MM BO3 because it gives a larger “one-hit-kill area” and recoil control.
For the optic, the Slate Reflector works great and makes seeing opponents very simple. The SMLE Pistol Grip increases the aim to fire speed which is essential as most attachments on this weapon slow that time down.
ActivisionNext up, use the Empress Crown as this stock gives the SVT a ton of weapon stability, recoil control, and accuracy. You’ll want to use Fabric Grip as this will give you a faster ADS and sprint to fire speed.
For the ammo type, Lengthened is perfect especially for players with a quick trigger finger as the bullets fly out of the gun. To round out the best SVT build use Vital as this Proficiency gives a larger critical damage area, and Fully Loaded to get some extra magazines.
Best SVT-40 Vanguard class (Perks, Equipment & Field Upgrade)
Activision- Perk 1: Ghost
- Perk 2: Radar
- Perk 3: Double Time
- Secondary: Machine Pistol
- Lethal: MK2 Frag Grenade
- Tactical: No 69 Stun Grenade
- Field Upgrade: Dead Drop
For the SVT-40 you will want to use the usual perks you find in other loadouts. Ghost is essential to remain hidden from Spy Planes. Next, use Radar so you can see where enemies are firing from and Double Time to run around the map faster.
The Machine Pistol works well with the SVT but if you want to shake it up then using Overkill in the third perk slot and a Combat Shotgun is another way to prevent enemies from getting too close.
For the equipment, use the MK2 Frag Grenade and No 69 Stun Grenade as these are great for slowing down enemies and getting more kills. To finish off, use the Dead Drop Field Upgrade because it will save you killstreak progress and you can keep pumping them out.
