In this guide we talk about the best sniper and tactical rifles in Call of Duty: Warzone, their characteristics and how they can change our sniper wars.
All that matters
The tactical and sniper rifles in Warzone are the best weapons if we want to deal with ranged combat, and each can be suitable for different situations. We will therefore analyze the weapons both on the basis of their use and through the main parameters: the damage for the "one shot one kill" ADS, charging speed and more. More specifically, our guide will address the analysis with this structure:
- The damage profile, in the form Head | Chest | Stomach | Arts
- The shots to kill, from the absolute minimum to the absolute maximum
- The cadence, or the number of shots fired per minute
- The capacity of the magazine
- The charging time
- Time to target ADS

This is undoubtedly the best weapon for anyone looking for a shotgun to kill in one shot. Both the damage of the AX-50 and HDR is very high but the former wins thanks to its faster reload.
