Top 3 Marksman Rifles loadouts in Warzone Season 1 Reloaded

3) DM56

The DM56 has secured its position as one of the best marksman rifles in Warzone due to its exceptional comfort and high damage output. The weapon has showcased versatility, delivering outstanding results at both mid and long ranges in the game. Players can benefit from its excellent rate of fire and remarkably smooth handling.

Here is the best DM56 loadout in Warzone:

• Muzzle - Shadowstrike Suppressor
• Optics - Mk.3 Reflector / Corio Eagleseye 2.5x
• Stock - Holger Recoil Pad
• Underbarrel - DR-6 Handstop
• Magazine - 40 Round Mag

The Shadowstrike Suppressor plays an important role in keeping players from being detected on the tac-map while firing. For optics, the Mk.3 Reflector is suggested as a clean red-dot sight providing an unobstructed view during aiming down sight (ADS).

The Holger Recoil Pad reduces the minimal recoil of the gun, allowing for more accurate long-range shots. The DR-6 Handstop improves strafing ability, ADS speed, sprint-to-fire speed, and overall movement speed.

The MCW 6.8 is an all-around marksman rifle known for its reliable damage output and versatility. It's a top choice for engagements ranging from close-quarters to long-range combat. If you want to get your hands on a powerful marksman rifle with impressive damage range and control, this weapon is the way to go.

Here's a recommended loadout for MCW 6.8:

• Muzzle: Shred CP90
• Optic: Nydar Model 2023
• Underbarrel: Kimura RYN-03 Vertical Grip
• Ammunition: 6.8 Wraith High Grain
