What is the best Warzone SP-X 80 loadout?

  • Barrel: 22.5" Elevate-11
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
  • Stock: Max DMR Precision
  • Ammunition: .300 High Velocity
  • Rear Grip: Schlager Match Grip

Despite a slight reduction in damage, the focus of this particular build is to enhance levels of accuracy so you can land shots on your intended target with ease.

Handling levels take a minor hit but the slight increase in mobility compensates for it.

Best Warzone SP-X 80 attachments

The Warzone gunsmith comes with a wide range of attachments that allow players to modify their weapons to suit all styles of play. After some initial testing, this set of five is a surefire way to score plenty of kills for the rest of Season 6:

  • Barrel: 22.5" Elevate-11
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
  • Stock: Max DMR Precision
  • Ammunition: .300 High Velocity
  • Rear Grip: Schlager Match Grip

This particular combination provides major boosts to accuracy which is essential to achieve success in long-distance duels. The 22.5" Elevate-11 barrel delivers improvements to aim-down-sight speed and movement speed along with the Max DMR Precision stock.

Overall, this build is excellent for taking down opponents from afar and with the fast aim-down-sight speed, you can react quickly to any targets that appear at closer distances too.

How to unlock SP-X 80 in Warzone

The SP-X 80 falls into the Bryson Long Rifle weapon platform and requires players to use another gun in order to unlock it. Use the LA-B 330 sniper rifle until you reach level 17 to get your hands on the SP-X 80.

Best Warzone SP-X 80 perk package and equipment

Once the best SP-X 80 attachments are ready to go, selecting a perk package and equipment combination that complements the sniper is the next step to building the very best loadout. Here are our recommendations.

Perk package

  • Base: Overkill
  • Base: Battle Hardened
  • Bonus: Fast Hands
  • Ultimate: High Alert

Overkill is an essential perk to use when building the best SP-X 80 loadout. It allows you to carry two primary weapons in the same loadout. For the rest of Season 6, we recommend the Cronen Squall battle rifle for some additional mid-range firepower

Equipment

  • Semtex (Lethal)
  • Stun Grenade (Tactical)

Is the SP-X 80 good in Warzone?

With plenty of viable sniper rifles available in Warzone 2, it's hard to see where the SP-X 80 fits in but after using it in mid-range situations rather than long-distance duels, it's one of the less impressive options to use for the remainder of Season 6 Reloaded.

The ability to deal plenty of damage is there, but there are stronger snipers to use.
