Best Warzone Marksman Rifles

5. KVD Enforcer

Activision

The KVD Enforcer has gained a ton of popularity during Warzone’s Season 1.

Despite not being as popular as other Rifles on the list, the KVD Enforcer has moved up the list due to its ease of use and great damage. Despite being a semi-automatic weapon, this Marksman Rifle easily kills enemies all over Urzikstan, Vondel, and Ashika Island.

The sheer damage combined with great range, handling, and recoil control makes the KVD Enforcer an outstanding mid to long-range pick in the game.

4. Tempus Torrent

The Tempus Torrent remains powerful despite the massive shift in the Marksman Rifle meta.

Following its domination in the previous Warzone iteration, the Tempus Torrent still boasts great stats to make it a competitive Marksman Rifle within the game. The gun has low recoil and its TTK remains impressive, despite how easy it is to use.

Unfortunately, the Tempus Torrent falls short in power compared to its counterparts. However, it still packs sufficient firepower to be recognized as a top Marksman Rifle in Warzone.

3. MCW 6.8

The MCW 6.8 will feel like the classic DMR in Warzone.

The semi-automatic iteration of the popular ACR, the MCW 6.8 Marksman Rifle combines firepower with enhanced comfort, boasting minimal recoil, ideal for engagements from mid to long ranges in Warzone.

While it may not outclass its competitors, the MCW 6.8 stands as an effective alternative for players seeking a challenging pick within the game.

2. DM56

Activision

The DM56 is the perfect alternative for the MTZ Interceptor as they both perform quite similarly.

Very close to first place we have the DM56, this semi-automatic Marksman Rifle has managed to place itself at the top in Warzone matches given its great comfort and high damage.

While this gun can definitely achieve three-shot kills, the MTZ Interceptor outperformed it with a slightly better TTK ultimately winning their rivalry. However, the weapon has demonstrated versatility, achieving incredible results at both mid to long ranges in the game.

1. MTZ Interceptor – Best Marksman Rifle in Warzone

The MTZ Interceptor has dominated matches in Warzone since the MW3 integration.

Ever since its integration into MW3, the MTZ Interceptor has claimed its dominance in nearly every Warzone lobby. Thanks to its substantial damage output, players can dispatch enemies with ease, requiring only a few mixed (head and torso) shots.

Despite its nerf in the January 11 update, the gun’s stats are still remarkably excelelnt compared to its counterparts, and by picking the right attachments, any player can still use this powerful Marksman Rifle to dominate in the game.
