Alright, so today I’m gonna share my journey on figuring out the best marksman rifle in Warzone. You know, it’s been a real pain trying to find that sweet spot between a sniper rifle and an assault rifle. But after some serious trial and error, I think I’ve cracked the code.
First off, I started by looking at what the pros were saying. There’s this rifle, the Kar98K, that everyone’s been hyping up. They say it’s a beast because you can one-shot enemies with a headshot, or take them down with two body shots. Sounds pretty sweet, right? So I decided to give it a go.

- Tried out the Kar98K – felt good, but wanted to explore more.
Then, I moved on to this LR 7.62 thing. People online were talking about building the best one-shot sniper rifle loadout in Warzone Season 1 with it. They recommended some attachments like a suppressor for the muzzle, a reinforced barrel, and a lightweight handguard for the underbarrel. I slapped those on and started testing.
- Built the LR 7.62 with a suppressor, reinforced barrel, and lightweight handguard.
Next up, I delved into the whole sniper rifle vs. marksman rifle debate. I mean, sniper rifles are all about precision, with their bolt action and special ammo. Marksman rifles, on the other hand, are supposed to be more accurate than assault rifles but not as pinpoint as sniper rifles. I wanted to see how this played out in the game.
- Compared sniper rifles and marksman rifles in-game – noticed the difference in accuracy and handling.
After that, I went through a bunch of different marksman rifles. I ranked them from worst to best, considering things like efficiency and time-to-kill. There were the SWAT 556, Tsarkov 7.62, DM 10, and AEK 973. Let me tell you, the AEK 973 really stood out. It had an amazing time-to-kill and the recoil wasn’t too crazy.
- Tested various marksman rifles: SWAT 556, Tsarkov 7.62, DM 10, AEK 973.
- Found the AEK 973 to have the best time-to-kill and manageable recoil.
Finally, I tried out different loadouts with the AEK973. I mixed and matched attachments, played a ton of matches, and tweaked things until I found the perfect setup. I focused on attachments that improved accuracy, range, and damage, while also trying to keep the recoil in check.
- Experimented with different loadouts for the AEK 973.
- Prioritized attachments that improved accuracy, range, and damage.
- Managed to control recoil while maximizing damage output.
So, after all that grinding, I finally achieved what I wanted. The AEK 973, with the right attachments, became my go-to marksman rifle. It’s got that sweet balance of accuracy, damage, and handling that I was looking for. Trust me, give it a try, and you might just find your new favorite weapon in Warzone.
It was a long journey, with lots of ups and downs, but I’m glad I went through it. Now I can confidently say that I’ve found the best marksman rifle in Warzone, at least for me. Hopefully, my experience can help some of you out there who are also struggling to find that perfect weapon. Happy gaming, folks!
