Best Sniper in Warzone 2
The best Sniper in Warzone 2 is the Victus XMR.It has best in class damage range and incredible accuracy, making it exceptional for picking off enemies in the distance with one or two clean shots. It’s incredibly similar to the MCPR-300, but with slightly higher chest damage that makes it the clear winner between the two.
Below, you can see our ranked list of the best Sniper Rifles in Warzone 2:
5. LA-B 330
The LA-B 330 is a great Sniper Rifle, with the remarkable damage and pinpoint precision that you’d expect from a gun of this class. It’s also delightfully easy to handle, with a lighter frame giving you some extra speed that makes the LA-B 330 perfect for those quickscopes.
4. SP-X 80
Ideal for quickscoping, the SP-X 80 has the fastest ADS speed of any Sniper Rifle in Warzone 2.
The SP-X 80 is the snappiest Sniper in Warzone 2, offering the fastest ADS speed that’ll help you with those fancy quickscopes. It does sacrifice some recoil control to achieve such speeds, but you should be able to easily correct it using a few attachments, making the SP-X 80 a formidable Rifle that’ll serve you well in medium-long range situations.
Fortunately, the SP-X 80 doesn’t lose out on damage. It’s still going to offer easy kills from a distance if you can land two shots, making it an excellent weapon to have in your arsenal while roaming Al Mazrah.

The Signal 50 has the fastest refire rate among the Sniper Rifles in Warzone 2, hurtling it into second place. Since most enemies will be running around with full armour, the ability to quickly fire another round and score a second hit makes the Signal 50 incredibly reliable for easy long-range kills. It doesn’t quite match the damage of other Snipers in Warzone 2, but you’ll find that it delivers kills just as often.
That refire rate also makes the Signal 50 better for newer players, as it’s a little more forgiving. If you’re still trying to get to grips with sharpshooting in Al Mazrah, the Signal 50 is the weapon for you.

With a single headshot dealing 275 damage, you’ll find that the MCPR-300 is either able to kill your opponents in just one hit, or leave them so low that a quick follow up as they scramble for cover will finish them off. With 10 rounds in a clip, the MCPR-300 is perfect for not just picking off one target, but perhaps an entire squad. With this weapon in your arsenal, it’ll be headshots galore.
