Best Modern Warfare 3 Marksman Rifles
5. Lockwood MK2
ActivisionThe Lockwood MK2 has quick scoping capability.
MW2’s Lockwood MK2 is a hard-hitting Marksman Rifle within MW3. While it may struggle against the options higher up in our list, this Marksman Rifle boasts an impressive fire rate, allowing you to get kills in quick succession.
If you’re looking for a fast alternative to quickscope in MW3, when equipped with the right attachments the Lockwood MK2 is an excellent pick.
4. MTZ Interceptor
ActivisionThe MTZ Interceptor has an impressive fire rate for a Marksman Rifle.
Despite being the best Marksman Rifle in both multiplayer and Warzone previously, a massive damage nerf pushed the MTZ Interceptor down the list. However, this semi-auto fire gun still has great range and fire rate, meaning players with a fast trigger finger can unload a ton of bullets in quick succession.
While it won’t be nailing one-shot kills across the map, it has two-tap potential so it can quickly deal with an enemy at mid-range and can even one-shot at close range with a well-placed headshot.
3. KVD Enforcer
ActivisionThe KVD Enforcer is the fastest-firing weapon in MW3.
The KVD Enforcer holds its own among the alternatives on this list, boasting a fast TTK within the Marksman Rifle category. Like its list counterparts, this gun delivers remarkable damage making it a valuable choice for players who prefer an aggressive playstyle.
2. MCW 6.8
ActivisionThe MCW 6.8 can be unlocked through the Armory Unlock Challenges system.
The MCW 6.8 is the Marksman Rifle variant of the popular MCW Assault Rifle. This gun is a versatile option effective at both medium and close ranges, although a quick finger will be needed to compete with the bullet velocity of other weapon categories.
With impressive damage and minimal recoil, the MCW 6.8 can assert dominance over distant enemies, particularly when shots, especially headshots, find their mark accurately.
1. DM56 – Best Marksman Rifle in MW3
ActivisionThe DM56 is one of the best Marksman Rifles in MW3.
Thanks to its incredibly low recoil and high damage output, the DM56 has secured the best Marksman Rifle in MW3 spot. Call of Duty veterans will notice a striking resemblance to the most-hated meta, the DMR from Black Ops Cold War.
This gun’s zero recoil and high bullet speed allow you to eliminate your opponents using a few bullets. Although it works perfectly at medium distances, don’t hesitate to use it at long ranges where it will be incredibly easy to get kills.
All in all, those were all the Marksman Rifles in Modern Warfare 3 ranked from best to worst.
