To get the one-shot loadout of Lockwood 300 in Warzone 2 The Haunting, players will have to equip it with the following attachments:

• Muzzle - GW Max-99 (Vertical - -1.40 oz, Horizontal - +1.00 in)
• Barrel - Matuzek 812 Barrel (Vertical - +0.32 lb, Horizontal - +0.40 in)
• Laser - Point-G3P 04 (Vertical - 0.00 oz, Horizontal - -51 ft)
• Stock - Heist Stock Mod
• Trigger Action - Maelstorm Dual Trigger (Vertical - -0.18 oz, Horizontal - -0.10 in)

The GW Max-99 is a suppressor-type muzzle attachment, and as such, it reduces the sound of the gunfire. Plus, it also improves the firearm's bullet velocity, damage range, and recoil smoothness.

The Matuzek 812 Barrel improves the ranged performance of the weapon by a significant margin. Being a shotgun, the effective range of the Lockwood 300 is not that high. As such, this barrel is a must-have attachment as it increases damage range, bullet velocity, and recoil control of the firearm. It also tightens the pallet spread, making the shotgun a lot more accurate.

The Point-G3P 04 laser will improve hip-fire accuracy, hip recoil control, and sprint-to-fire speed of the shotgun, making it much more effective in close-range combat, where the player might not get the chance to aim-down-the-sight (ADS).

The Heist Stock Mod will make the gun lighter, improving both the mobility and reaction speed of the firearm.

The Maelstorm Dual Trigger is the most important component of this loadout. It causes both the barrels of the Lockwood 300 to fire simultaneously, and that damage output makes the shotgun truly one shot.

Best Lockwood 300 class setup for Warzone 2 The Haunting

Here is the best class setup for the one-shot Lockwood 300 loadout in Warzone 2 "The Haunting":

• Secondary weapon - Sakin MG38 LMG

Perk Package

• Base Perk 1 - Tracker
• Base Perk 2 - Overkill
• Bonus Perk - Fast Hands
• Ultimate Perk - High Alert

Equipment

• Lethal - Drill Charge
• Tactical - Smoke Grenades

The Lockwood 300 is a strictly close-range weapon, and as such, it has to be paired with a gun that works well in mid-long-range engagements. In the current meta, the Sakin MG38 LMG is an exceptional weapon for ranged gunfights. The low recoil heavy hitter can easily thrash the opposition with its fast TTK and exceptional damage output per magazine.

When it comes to perks, Tracker, as the name suggests, will help the players keep track of surrounding enemies by highlighting their footsteps. Overkill will be needed to equip both primary weapons simultaneously. Fast Hands will provide a faster reload speed, weapon swap, and equipment usage. Lastly, High Alert will give visual pings on the operator's screen whenever an enemy aims in their direction.

For the equipment, Drill Charges will help the operator clear buildings or rooms where the enemy and Smoke Grenades are camping, providing them with the visual cover needed to escape an unfavorable gunfight.
