Best Attachments for Mid to Long-Range

With very few attachments available for the NTW 50, a few are able to stand out quite easily.

The best ammo type for the NTW 50 is the Anti-Materiel High-Power magazine. Do not let the reduced infantry damage effect fool you. This monster of a gun can still take out infantry in one shot. This time, you get the added benefit of taking down heavy armor faster. That which takes 8 shots to destroy a tank will now only need 4 shots.

The best mid-range scope will be the M11 6x, while the best long-range scope is the BKS 8x. This weapon has a lot of bullet drop, so a higher magnification will not be needed for extreme ranges.
