Call of Duty snipers are having a field day in Warzone.

While there weren’t a ton of different sniper rifles to choose from in Modern Warfare, many more have been added since Warzone began. Black Ops Cold War and Vanguard have both added long-range options but one of Modern Warfare’s snipers is still one of the the best.

The HDR can be kitted out for multiple different occasions and playstyles thanks to the Gunsmith. But if you want to use a sniper in Warzone, there’s definitely one optimal way to customize your loadout for it.

Don’t scoff at the HDR anymore. It’s a force to be reckoned with in Warzone for the foreseeable future until a new sniper is added or if the gun is suddenly nerfed by Raven Software. For now, make sure to level it up, if you haven’t already.

Here’s the strongest loadout to use with the HDR in battle royale during the summer of 2022.

Best HDR loadout in Warzone

  • Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
  • Barrel: 26.9″ HDR Pro
  • Laser: Tac Laser
  • Optic: Variable Zoom Scope
  • Stock: FTAC Stalker-Scout

After a huge nerf to certain sniper rifles during season three, the HDR has come to the forefront as one of the best options in the game due to its ability to one-shot headshot enemies from all ranges. This is a weapon that’s likely readily available to all players in Warzone and should be added to a sniper loadout class immediately.

This loadout works well in the battle royale mode with a well-balanced attack of range and accuracy. The Monolithic Suppressor, as has been the case since launch, is your best bet for its ability to both suppress sound and add more damage range.

The rest of the kit will buff accuracy, range, and control, while Sleight of Hand will keep you in the fight by minimizing the HDR’s long reload animation.
