The Strider 300 is a brand-new bolt-action sniper rifle available in Season 3 of Black Ops 7 and Warzone, which means those who like to run around sniping people in public matches will want to unlock it as soon as possible.

Luckily, Treyarch has decided to make the weapon go live earlier than originally planned. For those who plan to get it or saw it in a game and want to try it for themselves, here is a simple guide on how to unlock it.

How to Unlock the Strider 300 in Black Ops 7 and Warzone

Players can unlock the Strider 300 sniper rifle in Black Ops 7 and Warzone through the Lost Outpost event.

The event has its own currency titled Beacons, which can be obtained by getting eliminations in any mode, opening loot caches in Warzone, or completing Ranked Play matches. This currency can be used to purchase care packages from the event, and each package grants one event reward at random.

There are three tiers of care packages, each one costing 5, 10, and 20 beacons, respectively. The Strider 300 is among the rewards available for the 20-beacon care package, meaning you will have to purchase this one to get a chance at unlocking the weapon.

The event will run for 15 days, ending on Thursday, April 23rd at 9:00 AM PT (5:00 PM BST). After that, players will have to wait until Season 4 starts to get the sniper rifle through the Armory.

A second method to get this weapon is by purchasing a blueprint in the game's shop. However, the blueprint's attachments can't be modified until the weapon is unlocked through the previous method.
