The best SA-B 50 loadout and class setup in Modern Warfare 2

In Modern Warfare 2, players get to unlock various sniper and marksman rifles. If you are a long-range combat enthusiast, then these precision weapons are the way to go. Players won’t have all of these guns from the start and must level up quickly to unlock them.

The SA-B 50 is one of the best marksman rifles in the game, and this weapon unlocks when you progress with the SP-R 208 to level 13, as it is a part of the Bryson long-range rifle platform.

The in-game description of this weapon says “optimized for speed and precision, the SA-B 50 bolt-action rifle features a pistol grip and lightweight frame for increased maneuverability.” The SA-B 50 falls short in the fire rate and recoil control department. Its handling and mobility, however, trumps every other marksman rifle. 

If you are looking to build a quick-scoping class setup, then the SA-B 50 is the perfect weapon. We highly recommend players level it up quickly to unlock its weapon-tuning feature. To level up quickly, use double weapon XP tokens and play game modes like Free-For-All, Team Deathmatch, Hardpoint, and Domination. Once unlocked, you can set up the attachments to suit your preference. 

Here are the best attachments to use with the SA-B 50 marksman rifle in MW2. 

Best SA-B 50 loadout and class setup in MW2

• Muzzle: ZLR Talon 5
• Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
• Optic: Luca Bandera Scope
• Bolt: FSS ST87 Bolt
• Ammunition: .308 High Velocity

Secondary: Pistol, or SMG with the Overkill perk 
Tactical: Stim
Lethal: Drill Charge
Perk Packages: Overkill and Double Time, Spotter, Ghost
Field Upgrade: Deployable Cover and Dead Silence

The SA-B 50 is a powerful marksman rifle, especially if you are adept at getting headshots. Despite its base stats, you can equip these attachments and tune them accordingly. The SA-B 50 becomes unstoppable if you are moving around and covering off-angles. Field Upgrades like Dead Silence allow players to move around the map without getting detected.

Similarly, with a Deployable Cover, you can place it down in an area and mount the rifle on it to get some clean shots. The setup above doesn’t feature a muzzle, but players are encouraged to experiment with it as they deem fit. You can swap out the ammunition for a muzzle attachment.

As for the secondary weapon, it’s best to carry an SMG to cover close-range combat since opponents will always push a sniper’s hideout. But you also can’t go wrong with the X13 Auto pistol as a secondary if you’d rather rock with a different perk like Battle Hardened.

• Barrel: 18.5″ Bryson LR Factory
• Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
• Ammunition: .308 High Velocity
• Magazine: 5 Round Mag
• Bolt: FSS ST87 Bolt

This one’s for the run-and-gun speed demon quick-scopers of the world. This loadout’s increased fire rate, range, accuracy, mobility, and handling are all worth the slight negation to recoil control and smaller magazine.

The 5 Round Mag is a loss of overall rounds, but its increase to movement speed, ADS speed, sprint to fire speed, and reload quickness is a necessary trade-off.
