Yeah, weapon mods don't give the uber xp they used to:

Adjusted XP given when crafing a powerup. biwan:

The best possible way to get crafting exp is to get the scout tree then start making traps. Once you have a bunch of traps made go out and find a kima or other slow animal that cons red and just throw all your traps till y ou max out your exp then go get the next level...you get like 150-200 trap exp per throw...btw use glow traps...can use them over and over without any wait period between uses. Once you get to to the 3rd level of trapping you can make Glow wire traps. These traps require 7 bone 10 hide and 3 organics..i ushualy just use hide for the organics as well. This trap gives 60xp per creation so your exp will go pretty quick. I'm not sure how much exp you get if someone elses use them as I just destroy mine once i've made them. Give it a try though.

If you are picking up scout craft the camps. Basics only need 4hid and 2bone and give 25xp. Then when you get survival 2 you can make Multiperson camps. These need 8hide and 4bone and give 50xp.
