I saw many players with a perfect aim specificly with basic weapon like a Springfield. They Shoot very very quickly, far and they never miss.
So what is technique for do that, for use only worst weapon without upgrade and crush the game?
Springfield is in truth, a quite good rifle. The USMC one especially. It’s also dirt cheap to upgrade to it’s maximum which makes it extremely accurate and reduce dispersion.
As for those who shoot as you described… Well I’m like that. But that’s only due to training. Using bolties repeatedly since forever.
There’s also players on console who have snap shot aim assist, but for center mass.

The only really bad thing about springfield is its vanilla sound. Definitely not big fan of it.

How can you be sure, if it’s OTHER’S weapons?
I’m a fan of this rifle and ran Engineer squads with it even pre-merge.
I can’t argue with Adamnpee on the sound, but somehow the crispness of it seems to work well for me (like the Winchester). The dull thud of the KAR98 (though I also love that rifle) seems to throw me off.

The sights. Don’t like em.
Well, the sigths of USMC variant he was talking about are more than okay.

indeed.
bolt action rifles are magnificent in the rights hand.
the trick is having lots of practice, and the weapon it self upgraded.
rule of thumb is, always to upgrade the weapon ( if you are planning on using it alot ).
because the damage and precision will increase at the last

Or in the hand of aim assist if you are playing on consoles :PP
Try to play this game on controller and tell me how it feels 
I used sound mods to have it better… but they made my game crash since update. They were probably obsolete…
I’ll have to check @Bigote0070 new versions!
Maple syrup fueled rifle, eh!

You can practice and practice and can become more effective as a result, but some things you will never be able to beat with practice in an online multiplayer shooter game like Enlisted.
Just like you can practice cycling every day of your life but you will still never be able to win the Tour de France a record seven years in a row like the former professional road racing cyclist Lance Armstrong did, meaning this guy:
Lance Armstrong needed a “little help” to win those seven titles in a row, and some of the most effective players in Enlisted also need a “little help” to win too, just like Lance Armstrong.
Lance Armstrong however lost the seven titles he won as a result of the “little help” he chose, but players like Lance Armstrong do not have that problem in Enlisted.
That “little help” is called cheating.
If the soldier you directly control in Enlisted is constantly getting killed by a single shot to the head, even when running and zig zagging, at long range (75+ meter) from the same player than more likely than not you are being shot by an AimBot, a cheat commonly used by cheating players. No human can outperform an AimBot, no matter how good they are.
If you do not know what an AimBot is then do some research on the subject.
All the research and the evidence it has produced the past few years has made clear that the number of people using cheat hardware and software has never been higher than it currently is.
Anywhere from 20% to 70% of the human players you run into in an online multiplayer match use some form of cheat. In every online multplayer game there is, so including Enlisted.
If you know what to look for when they are quite easy to spot, especially if you have been playing online multiplayer games for many years.
Cheaters are not better players per se, but they usually will become more effective players due to the cheats they use. So more likely than not they are at or near the top of the leaderboard, especially in online multiplayer shooter games.
And the people that claim the loudest that there are so no such thing as cheaters or that online cheating is the exception and not the rule are most likely, and even usually, the cheaters themselves. Just like the former professional road racing cyclist Lance Armstrong, who did just that as well until he was caught cheating.
Some of the “world best” players in online gaming have been outright caught cheating, even during electronic sports tournaments.
Cheaters are there both in board games and electronic (video) games, catching them outright cheating is far easier in board games though.
If you catch a cheater in real life in a board game then you know who he is and you can choose to not play against that person ever again. In an electronic game however the developers force you to play against the same group of online cheaters again and again because you, the player, are sadly NOT given the option to block cheaters. If you, the player, would be allowed to block players from your playlist then you would not have to play against those cheaters again. Sadly developers usually do not give players this block option and this over time leads to many non-cheating players simply quitting an electronic (video) game all together.
There are many videos on YouTube and on certain websites where you can see cheaters in action in Enlisted: using AimBot, WallHack, ESP etc. etc. I will not give any links here, you can easily find them yourself. The DMA (Direct Memory Access) attack form of cheating makes use of a hardware solution that is very difficult, if not impossible, to detect.
I have played both board and electronic (video) wargames. The big advantage board wargames had and have over electronic wargames is that it is easier to catch a cheater in real life in a board wargame, and additionally once caught and exposed that cheater’s chances of still being allowed to play in a board wargame tournament are close to zero.
With electronic wargames you can hide your real identity, location, make new accounts and the newest forms of cheating are so advanced that they are almost impossible to catch.
Some time ago in Enlisted I ran into a cheater who shot the pilot of my aircraft with a headshot every time I entered the match and he always knew where my aircraft was the moment I entered the map. A typical example of AimBot and WallHack/ESP. The cheaters in aircraft are the easiest to spot in Enlisted because they constantly know precisely where everyone is with a WallHack and with this targeting information it is quite easy for them to constantly perfectly take out enemy aircraft, rally points, vehicles, anti-aircraft artillery etc.
Another easy way to spot a cheater is if you are using a nine men squad and the cheater first takes out only the soldier that you directly control with a single shot to the head (AimBot), whereafter he continues to ONLY shoot at the next soldier that you thereafter select to take control of. With a WallHack the cheater can see which of the remaining eight soldiers in the squad you just took control of. Such a cheater then proceeds to only instantly kill the soldier you just took control of, BEFORE you can even move that soldier. And since your AI soldiers are programmed to respond too slow such a cheater can and will easily take out a whole nine men squad that way, with nine perfect shots to the head.
It is useless to report these cheaters, nothing definite will be done about them and they will be back with another account in no time. It takes time to watch a replay to gather the “evidence” of cheating only to see the same cheater back every other day. That is a waste of time. I for one do NOT play Enlisted in order to “police” a match and to watch replays to report cheaters.
On the bright side, in our household several people play Enlisted both on a PC account and an Xbox account. The cheating on the Xbox is there, but it is far less and far, far less extreme than on the PC.
The best solution for everyone to enjoying online gaming again, and enjoy a game in the long term, is to simply have games focus on improving the PVE, Player Versus Environment, gaming experience. So 1-human-player-versus-the-AI, but with more effective AI soldiers than Enlisted currently has. And a PVE coop mode with up to four humans against the AI. And a 1-versus-1 human player game mode would also be interesting, with each human player supported by nine AI squads and with the option to block a (suspected) cheater from your player list.
The online mass multiplayer PVP, Player Versus Player, game mode could then still remain in existence as well for the sole benefit of the cheaters and the SM oriented players.
To sum it up: enjoy Enlisted and practice your gunnery skills both in matches and on the shooting range, but be aware that some human players that you are up against in Enlisted make use of a “little help” just like Lance Armstrong, and that normal human skill will never be able to match, let alone surpass their “little help”.
Ah, those mythical cheaters! They’re so rampant in Enlisted that I only met ONE confirmed guy, in 3 years of play… 
never have i ever had such impulse to just flag some posts like i have it now.

Play a LOT. At least for me, thanks to tracers, playing a lot lets me internalise where the boolit will go, so I don’t have to think about it anymore. Eventually you just shoot on pure instinct. Sadly it seems to go away almost as soon as you stop spamming the faction and takes a bit of playing to get back into it lol
Anytime I switch to a faction I haven’t played in a long while I just miss everything for a bit
