The SP-R 208 is another of the very quick, aggressive bolt-actions that are so beloved in Warzone. But unlike the Kar or the Swiss, no one pays the SP-R much attention. This is probably because it came out at the wrong time, never got many great Battle Pass blueprints, and just didn't seem to offer something those other two rifles didn't have. But in the pre-integration ban-wave, those weapons were both nerfed, while the SP-R wasn't. And now it stacks up with the best of the best. In this article, we'll present you with the best attachments and loadout for this underrated weapon.

The Variable Zoom Scope with the SP-R 208 is a joy to use; it feels clean and intuitive, and so that attachment is going straight on. Besides that, we're going to go suppressed, and then look to improve aim-down-sight time and bullet velocity. With the above attachments, we'll get a weapon with high mobility and very little drop-off. Perfect!

Cooper Sniper Support

If you're using a Sniper, you shouldn't be using anything else as a Sniper Support right now except the Cooper Carbine. It's just that dominant in this position; more than capable at any range from 60 m and in. The above build is going to give you a very easy to use weapon. But if you want to commit to as low a TTK as possible, then you should consider the Gracey barrel and Compressed rounds, although these will both make the weapon more difficult to use.

The Best Equipment For The SP-R 208

LethalThrowing Knife
TacticalHeartbeat Sensor

The Heartbeat Sensor will be no surprise to anyone, but the Throwing Knife might strike you as a touch aggressive for a sniper loadout. The thing is we're taking the Cooper Carbine, so we're able to get way more aggressive than we normally can. We'll be making those CQC pushes and downing people, and in those situations the Throwing Knife is perfect.

The Best Perks for the SP-R 208

Perk 1Cold-Blooded
Perk 2Overkill

Perk 3

Combat Scout

You're probably bored by seeing these perks, but they're the meta for a reason. Cold-Blooded prevents Combat Scout from working against us, and we're taking Combat Scout to use it against players who weren't as wise. It works fantastically on Caldera, so nothing else really compares. In the second slot, Overkill is the obvious pick so that we can take a Sniper Support with a Sniper off the rip.

If this isn't working out for you, maybe you want an easier long-range option than a sniper. May we suggest the currently-broken Bren?
