Warzone’s Best sniper rifles in Season 2

Warzone’s Best sniper rifles in Season 2

The current meta favors long-range eliminations so here are the best season 2 snipers in Warzone.

The best Warzone sniper rifles favor the current long range meta. Although if you want no sniper glint a Marksman rifle is worth considering (as well as a scope swap) to give you range without a giveaway glint. Either way, many engagements in Warzone take place at long range at the moment, and having a good ranged option is vital to standing a chance to seeing the final circle.

Here are the best sniper rifles in Season 2

SP-R 208 marksman rifle

 

Kicking things off is the SP-R 208, a marksman rifle with a ton of power and mobility. Because of this, you’ll find it ideal for more aggressive play styles as opposed to setting up shop in one spot. In fact, you can completely deck this weapon out to serve as a tactical rifle more so than a sniper.

HDR Sniper rifle

 

 

Next up is a weapon that feels almost like the antithesis of the SP-R. That’s right, the HDR is a much slower weapon that is best used when you’re holding down a position, taking shots from super long distances. Because it’s slower, you should absolutely pair it with a secondary weapon that works well at medium to close range.

LW3 – Tundra sniper rifle

 

 

The LW3 – Tundra used to be terrible, but following recent updates, it now rivals the HDR in more ways than one. Of course, the HDR is a top tier weapon when used at extremely long range, but the Tundra is similar, with a few added benefits. For starters, it has a slightly faster fire rate, along with being a bit easier to control.

Rytec AMR sniper rifle

 

 

The Rytec AMR is a great choice for those who plan on partaking in more aggressive long range firefights. Whereas the HDR is much better for slower deliberate encounters, the Rytec is best when taking out multiple enemies in fast succession. It has a tremendously fast rate of fire that mirrors something like the Dragonov, without sacrificing power.

AX-50 sniper rifle

 

 

Some players might find the HDR a bit difficult to use. That’s because it’s slow and is a little bit harder to control than you might expect. If that’s the case, you should try the AX-50. This rifle works similarly to the HDR, but has a slightly faster fire rate, better mobility, and arguably more manageable recoil (this is personal preference, of course).

Pelington 703 sniper rifle

 

 

Now that some of the game’s attachments have been buffed (like the Wrapped Suppressor), the Pelington 703 is finally usable in Warzone. In fact, if you deck it out properly, it rivals even the best snipers the game has to offer. Sadly, the Pelington is often overlooked due to having a rough start after the Cold War integration.

Kar98k marksman rifle

 

 

The Kar98k takes the best features of the SP-R 208 and improves them in many ways, giving you a mobile sniper with a lot of power. It works similarly, best used in fast paced situations, though with some added speed. Since it’s so lightweight, players opt to use this weapon as a great compliment to an SMG or other close to medium range firearm.

As you can see, there are a variety of choices for snipers in Warzone that adhere to many playstyles. Want something for aggressive run and gunning? The Kar98k should be your first choice. Want to set up shop and take shots from hundreds of meters across the map? Go with the HDR. Or if you’re looking for something in between, the Tundra or Pelington are fantastic choices. The point is that you should now have enough information to choose a sniper that matches how you play.
