Do you know the best one shot Sniper in Warzone 2? A weapon that can use one bullet to put an end to another player’s game? Well, Call of Duty: Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 offer a variety of weapons, but here we’re about to dive into some very particular details to find the best one-shot Sniper Rifle. There are a total of seven Sniper Rifles in Warzone 2. There’s also a category by the name of Marksman Rifles, which weapons don’t have the firepower to take down targets in one shot only. Now, ready for a weapon crafting session in Task Force 141’s base? Let’s get started!
Best One Shot Sniper Rifle Loadouts in Warzone 2
The following loadouts are ranked based on the ease of use, firepower, accuracy, and handling of each Sniper Rifle. The list is ranked, so number one is the best here! However, the other two rifles have their own set of advantages, which can be used for certain maps and situations. Also, remember that you need to headshot the opponents to one-shot them with Sniper Rifles in Warzone 2.
3. Victus XMR
- Barrel: Mack 8 33.5 Super
- Muzzle: Bruen Counter-Ops
- Laser: VLK LZR 7mw
- Optic: SZ Heatsource 800
- Ammunition: .50 Cal Explosive
The Victus XMR was the best heavy Sniper Rifle when the game launched in 2022. However, if you’re still looking for the best rifle to hit the ranged targets with, the Victus won’t let you down. This weapon has the advantage of the best range and damage among all the Sniper Rifles, but still, in order to one shot the enemy targets with it, you need to use the explosive rounds.
The image above shows the one-shot build of this Sniper Rifle in Warzone 2, which you can use in the current Season as well. The attachments on this Victus XMR are meant to increase its bullet velocity to the maximum capacity, which will surely decrease its speed. That’s why the deserts of Al-Mazrah are the best place you can use this rifle.
As for the attachments, we have the .50 Cal Explosive ammunition for the one shot guarantee for sure. And then, we have the VLK LZR 7mw laser to keep that scope from shaking. Speaking of the scope, though, we have used the SZ Heatsource 800 here for the best vision in fogs, DMZ, Vondel weather changes, and even seeing through smoke grenades.
The other two attachments here are the Mack 8 33.5 Super and Bruen Counter-Ops. These two maximize the range, bullet velocity, and damage on this one shot Sniper Rifle in Warzone 2. This increases what Victus XMR is known for and creates a huge advantage for the real range hunting snipers!
2. MCPR-300
- Barrel: 19″ Silentfire Barrel
- Bolt: Cronen Smooth Bolt
- Laser: FSS Ole-V Laser
- Optic: SZ Heatsource 800
- Ammunition: .300 Mag Explosive
This weapon is surely one of the best one-shot Sniper Rifles in Warzone 2. One of the best advantages that the MCPR-300 has is its faster ADS time and movement speed compared to the Victus XMR. However, it can still deliver balanced damage and bullet velocity to hit the ranged targets. You can use the loadout in the image above for literally every map on Warzone 2, but it might be a bit tricky to hit long ranged shots with it.
For starters, the .300 Mag Explosive ammunition is here again for the one-shot guarantee. Next, we have the FSS Ole-V laser, which is usually used for SMGs and Assault Rifles to increase the ADS time, but here we choose it to add some stability to our aim. After that, the SZ Heatsource 800 optic can be used for the same reason we had it on Victus XMR.
And for the last two attachments, we have the 19″ Silentfire barrel and the Cronen Smooth bolt. You see, we haven’t used any muzzles here, which would make it so heavy. This one-shot Sniper loadout is best used in Ashika Island and Vondel maps in Warzone 2.
1. Best One Shot Sniper Rifle in Warzone 2: The SP-X
- Bolt: FSS ST87 Bolt
- Muzzle: Nilsound 90
- Laser: FSS Ole-V Laser
- Optic: SZ Heatsource 800
- Ammunition: .300 Incendiary
The SP-X is much lighter than MCPR-300 and Victus XMR when it comes to mobility. On the other side, however, you’ll see that it has less power than the other two. But is SP-X Sniper Rifle enough to one-shot enemies in Warzone 2? Yes, And that’s all that matters!
The SP-X gives you the advantage of a faster bullet rechambering speed, movement speed, and fast ADS time, alongside the one-shot headshot ability. But there’s one huge benefit that the SP-X offers, and that’s balanced bullet velocity! Although it has all the speed advantages, you still get to have the least bullet drops with this Sniper Rifle, thanks to the .300 Incendiary ammunition type, instead of the explosive rounds.
Now in this loadout, we are using the Nilsound 90 muzzle to increase this Sniper Rifle’s bullet velocity. But the SP-X does not have a barrel for increasing its range or damage. That’s where the Incendiary rounds comes into play. After that, you can attach an optic or 8 rounds magazine to your rifle. And then, go for the FSS Ole-V laser for aiming steadiness and the FSS ST87 bolt for faster bullet rechambering.
Call of Duty: Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 are available to play on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Battle.Net.
