You could always aspire to a maxed Ishukone Assault Forge Gun.. then you'll only need one clip to destroy even maxed skilled triple rep Maddies.

Dump all 10 at a choke point that a tank or LAV is likely to drive through, walk away, switch suits, cackle evilly when you get the destruction feed. If you're gonna throw proxies down and don't want a tank looking at the ground, call a cheap tank out as bait so he'll come chasing it looking up at the rdv.
Proxies are almost impossible to spot simply because I don't spend the time and energy to look out for them (because they are rarely seen). Only once I spotted them and it was because they had stark contrast with the bright midday sand they were placed upon. I only scan the ground once I see proxies from a scanner or I end up running over some. So far I've been destroyed by proxies twice out of the handful amount of times I've ran over them (I'd say that's a good success rate)
Edit: also you want to place them where a tank will be going at max speed. In other words, not near corners or exactly on entrance ways. If there isn't just one straight path where the proxies are placed, then chances are that I'll come from an angle or a different approach that will give me an alert soon enough as I'm not going fast enough for them to become unavoidable (like going around a corner, I'm not going fast enough)

That's assuming they don't drive around a nearby corner or that you don't get shot by infantry while putting all your focus on that tank, or that they just don't boost away after the first hit... or that your forge gun fires all four shots when you need it to... Forget investing skill points, just buy a militia sica, fit a damage mod, shield hardener, armor hardener, and plates and go to town. Works best for single pops, cheap, effective, and actually gives you a chance of killing that tank before he drives away... Or go a harder route and get a scout suit with RE's. The above option is much easier and less SP intensive though.
Using a 0 SP tank is a scrub tactic and it only softens up AVers. Then when their 0 SP militia crutches are nerfed, they'd have forgotten how to use proper AV and cry that tanks are still powerful and demand an AV buff and/or tank nerf, when really all they needed to do was learn how to use AV properly.
Or even better, for 0 SP and ISK investment, you can avoid tanks altogether. My infantry alt still has yet to die to a blaster tank, and I run on it a fair amount of times. I got 0 SP into AV. I just avoid tanks altogether and they don't bother me, or at least are unsuccessful at killing me, get bored, and move on to find a blueberry that's not as difficult to kill.
