The Victus XMR sniper rifle uses .50 cal ammunition to blast through tank armor like paper. In Call of Duty: Warzone 2, it allows you to tear armor-plated enemies with powerful, precise, long-range shots.
The Victus XMR belongs to the Imperatorium Platform and cannot be unlocked in Warzone 2 through gameplay. You have to purchase the season one battle pass and then get enough battle tokens to unlock sector A7 for the Victus XMR.
The .50 cal sniper is based on the Barrett from Call of Duty 4, meaning that firing this sniper rifle in WZ2 will create that massive boom everyone loves.
Something important to know is that the Victus XMR was the only sniper in WZ2 at the start of season one to down three-armored enemies with a one-shot headshot. This was done using incendiary rounds. However, that has since then been changed.
The following guide will tell you the best Victus XMR loadout in Call of Duty: Warzone 2.

Best Victus XMR loadout, attachments, tunings
| Slot | Attachment | Unlock Requirement | Attachment Tuning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stock | XRK Rise 50 | Victus XMR level 19 | -2.71 ⮃ and +0.70 ⮀ |
| Barrel | Mack 8 33.5 Super | Victus XMR level 3 | -0.37 ⮃ and +0.27 ⮀ |

| Ammunition | .50 CAL High Velocity | Victus XMR level 9 | +0.43 ⮃ and +4.35 ⮀ |
The Mack 8 33.5 Super barrel is one of the best season-one attachments to start off this sniper loadout with. Since the focal point of the Victus XMR is to reach long-range targets, it’s obvious to choose a barrel such as the Mack 8 33.5 Super to increase the damage range and bullet velocity altogether.
Pairing the Barrel with the BPZ40 Hybrid Optic is the most recommended option for a one-shot headshot in WZ2. This Optic provides an impressive 5.5x magnification and dual optics toggle. You will have a much clearer vision of enemies and can take them down quickly.
The XRK Rise 50 is an excellent tactical stock boosting your aiming speed. You will have great ADS, crouch movement, and sprint speed, helping you run and gun down the enemies. This attachment allows you to take down enemies swiftly and quickly.
The VLK LZR 7MW laser will increase your ADS and reduce some of the weight you might feel while bringing up the scope. Additionally, .50 Cal High Velocity provides high bullet velocity, ensuring your bullet reaches the target quickly. Your enemies will not be able to dodge or escape most of your shots.
