The PSR is among the toughest snipper unlocks in Battlefield 6, after the Deadeye 2 challenge. To attain it, you’ll need to earn 150 headshot kills from more than 200 meters using sniper rifles — something that sounds simple until you try doing it in real matches.
Here’s the fastest way to do it with the proper setup, map choice, and successful farming method.
Step 1: Recon Class and Proper Sniper Rifle
First, switch to Recon, as the class gives you perfect sniper aim and enhanced breath control. It’s meant for long-range combat, and you will require all the accuracy for successful headshots at 200 meters.
Pick any high-powered bolt-action sniper rifle you’re comfortable with. The M2010 ESR is an ideal choice because of its clean scope and predictable bullet drop.
Step 2: Build a Long-Range Loadout
To make those long shots easier, you’ll want to maximize bullet velocity, range, and stability. Here’s a sample long-range setup for the M2010 ESR:
- Barrel: Extended
- Left Accessory: Range Finder
- Underbarrel: Bipod
- Ammunition: Long-Range
- Ergonomics: ADS Bolt
- Optic: 6x or higher
This setup allows you to precisely calculate bullet drop and be target-locked from 200 meters and beyond. The bipod is especially helpful to stabilize your sight on rooftops or mountain slopes.
Step 3: Select the Proper Map
The best maps to use for this challenge are Operation Firestorm and Mirak Valley — those are the only two large and open maps where you can always find 200-meter sightlines.
Scale to adjacent mountains, rooftops, or tall buildings, and start taking out targets in the open fields or objective areas.
Step 4: Use a Sniping Portal Server
You can even simplify this grind further by grinding bots instead of players. Either create your own Portal experience or utilize one of the numerous sniper farming servers out there.
One example is the community server:
Bot Conquest – Big Maps – Sniper Challenges
Code: ZZSM
To host it:
- Go to the Community tab.
- Click on Search Experiences.
- Click on name or code.
- Click on the experience and choose Host.
- Add a password so random players won’t connect.
- If you get the “Global Game Quote Exceeded” error, just keep clicking Host until it loads.
Once inside, head for a good vantage point — a smokestack, tower, or mountain ridge — and begin farming bots from a distance of more than 200 meters. Each clean headshot is one that counts in the challenge.
Step 5: Maintain a Steady Pace
With even the optimal setup and farming strategy, this task will be time-consuming. Consistently making 200-meter headshots is still tricky, so focus more on rhythm and accuracy rather than speed.
Completing Deadeye 2 at last unlocks the PSR, a diabolical sniper rifle that will highly reward accuracy and patience — fitting for what it takes to get it.
