Battlefield 6 long-range work is more than tweaking sights. If you want to get better at distant shots without the pressure of live matches, start in a Battlefield 6 Bot Lobby.

Many players think changing reticle color or zoom will fix long-range misses, but those changes only help comfort. The player still needs to know how bullets travel and how to fight drop and travel time. The Range Finder attachment is the single tool that cuts most guessing out of the job. The Range Finder tells you the exact distance to the target when you aim at them. When you know distance, you can use the zeroing feature correctly and stop hoping your shots land.

Zeroing is the next step after the Range Finder. The player must set the scope to the distance the Range Finder shows. If the Range Finder reads 350 meters, the player zeros the scope to 350 meters. When the scope is zeroed the bullets will hit where the crosshair sits at that distance. The player does not have to aim above the target and guess how much drop to expect. Learn the look and the numbers so zeroing becomes a fast habit.

Know your weapon ballistics. Different rifles have different bullet speeds and arc. The player should practice with a few rifles to see which ones fly flat and which ones arc more. The faster bullets need less zero correction and are easier for very long shots. The slower bullets need more exact zeroing and more lead on moving targets. Use the bot lobby to test every rifle at 100, 200, 300, and 400 meters so you can feel the difference instead of guessing in a live match.

Aim skills still matter. The player must hold steady shots, learn to lead moving targets, and use breath hold or steadying mechanics to reduce sway. The player must also pick firing positions with cover and sight lines that match the rifle’s range. Good map knowledge helps you guess likely enemy routes so you can pre-aim where targets will appear. Use angles that hide your silhouette and keep escape routes so you do not get flanked while lining up a long shot.

Practice the full routine until it is automatic: spot the target, use the Range Finder, zero the scope to that distance, hold steady, and then fire. If the target moves, the player must lead based on their trials in the bot lobby and take into account wind or movement if the game models that. If you change rifles, run the same distance tests again. Keep a short list of zero settings for each common range so you can change faster under pressure.

Return to the cheap Bf6 bot lobby often to build muscle memory. Use the lobby to rehearse your spotting, Range Finder reading, zeroing, and breathing timing without the stress of losing a round. Raise bot movement and distance over time so your practice matches real fights.
