Ranked List: Infantry Rifles in Modern Warfare 2

Want to know which infantry rifle is the best in Warzone 2? While in Modern Warfare 2 their usefulness is somewhat limited by the size of the map,  infantry rifles are much more deadly in Battle Royale or the  DMZ , as there is much more scope for aiming at a distance in the game.

8. Crossbow

The crossbow has featured in several CoD games and made a triumphant return in Modern Warfare 2 Season 2. Despite being a fun weapon due to its unique nature, the crossbow is definitely not the most competitive option. The weapon requires unsurpassed accuracy, and due to the mechanics of the shutter, it is difficult to take on several enemies at once.

7, LM-S

In seventh place on our list is the LM-S Marksman Rifle, a semi-automatic rifle that has the best rate of fire of any weapon in its class.

The reason he’s almost last on the list is because he simply doesn’t have enough power in Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer, especially from a distance, meaning you’ll need to put a few bullets into the player to overwhelm him.

6, EBR-14

The EBR-14 is simply superior to the LM-S as it is also a semi-automatic rifle, but it is much more stable and has better accuracy, which can be key in long range combat.

If you equip this EBR-14 with the right attachments, it can kill in two shots from most ranges, making it a great choice for those who want to use a semi-automatic weapon.

5, TAQ-M

TAQ-M, another semi-automatic rifle but with a 6.5mm sniper cartridge and a modular design. This means that it is much more effective at long range compared to previous weapons, and also has better mobility and accuracy. TAQ-M is also very consistent at range, killing him in two shots.

4 Lockwood MK2

In fourth place we have the Lockwood MK2, which can be tricky to use, but once mastered, it becomes a throwaway vehicle on most maps and is even useful at close to mid range.

Its biggest drawback is the rate of fire of the lever action rifle, but that also makes it very enjoyable to use, as once you get the hang of its rhythm, you will take down enemies with ease.

3, Tempus Torrent

Modern Warfare 2 players who have dabbled in Warzone in the past will recognize Tempus Torrent, as it was dubbed the new DMR when it arrived in the second season of Reloaded.

This powerful rifle is great for sharpshooters. While it’s not the easiest Marksman Rifle to handle, those who can master its recoil pattern and tame it are sure to get kills in multiplayer matches.

2, SA-B 50

The SA-B has great damage and accuracy, but due to its range and rate of fire, it misses out on top spot as it’s just not as stable as the number one pick.

1. SP-R 208

The best sniper rifle in Modern Warfare 2 is without a doubt the SP-R 208. This weapon has best-in-class recoil control and accuracy, which means you won’t miss. It also has great damage and range.

The only thing that lets this weapon down is the rate of fire, but if you’re taking accurate shots, that’s not a problem. The SP-R 208 is essentially a mini sniper rifle that is extremely mobile, making it an excellent quick-aim weapon.
