The best meta sniper rifle loadout in MW3 Warzone Season 2 gives fans the chance to one-shot enemies on Urzikstan and Fortune's Keep.

After Call of Duty: Warzone Season 2 was live for just one day, the long-range meta in Battle Royale and Resurgence completely changed. The BP50 Assault Rifle, included in the Season 2 Battle Pass, is easily the best weapon in its class after a huge nerf to the RAM-7. Plus, the MTZ-762 Battle Rifle got a secret buff after almost all the other long-range options received nerfs as well. Although most of the weapon changes came in the assault rifle and battle rifle categories, snipers also received some major buffs and nerfs that propelled one gun to the top of the meta.

Best Meta Sniper Rifle Loadout in MW3 Warzone Season 2

The best meta sniper rifle in MW3 Warzone Season 2 is the XRK Stalker. After receiving a huge buff in the latest patch, the sniper can now one-shot enemies with a well-placed headshot. Also, the weapon's max damage ranged was increased.

Warzone content creator, Luke "Metaphor" Canning, showed off his XRK Stalker build in his latest YouTube video. Check out the meta loadout below.

  • Laser: SL Razorhawk Laser Light
  • Barrel: Fission 60 Barrel
  • Muzzle: Sonic Suppressor XL
  • Ammunition: .50 High Grain Rounds
  • Stock: No Stock

"This thing is insane," Metaphor says as he highlights the XRK Stalker Sniper. "With this build, you can one-shot up to 75 meters." Metaphor's build is "a pretty good balance of being pretty quick and having a very long one-shot range."

Best Sniper Support for XRK Stalker in MW3 Warzone Season 2

The best sniper support for the XRK Stalker in MW3 Warzone Season 2 is the BP50 Assault Rifle. Although players might expect something a little more traditional, like an SMG as the best secondary to the XRK Stalker, the BP50 Assault Rifle is the perfect weapon to finish kills from long and mid-range on both Fortune's Keep and Urzikstan.
