  • 4Practise tapping a target at a fixed distance to learn its per-shot kick.

Using a Rust script with the SKS Rifle

A Rust script (also called a recoil script or no-recoil macro) moves your mouse against the SKS Rifle's recoil for you, so your shots stay where you aim. The WipeReady Rust script has a profile tuned to the SKS Rifle's exact recoil pattern for every attachment, matched to your sensitivity and FOV.

You decide how much it does: at 100% horizontal and vertical control it holds the SKS Rifle steady, and lower settings hand more of the work back to you. Not sure yet? Feel it first in the free Recoil Range.
