Farah and Nikolai weren’t the only new additions to season six of Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare. There were also two new tools of the trade to help dominate games in BR or multiplayer, and years later, one of them is still firmly in the meta.
One of the weapons that was added all the way back in Modern Warfare’s season six is a marksman rifle—and it’s arguably one of the best in the game. The SP-R 208 is flexible and can be built to snipe at long range or quickscope up close.
The SP-R 208’s strength is for the best and most nimble snipers who are able to quickscope with the best of them, making it excel in the frantic, fast-paced environment of Rebirth Island. After recent sniper changes, it’s as strong as it ever has been.
No matter how you use the SP-R 208, it’s one of the most fun new guns added to the game since it launched in the fall of 2020. It might not vibe with every player, but many will find it to be amazing. It has the potential to be a favorite for sniper players of any ilk, whether they like to run and gun or post up and camp.
Here are some of the best loadouts for the SP-R 208 in CoD, with some love for MW multiplayer as well.
