Best Quickscoping loadouts in Black Ops 6

Boom. Headshot.

Quickscoping is an age-old art in the Call of Duty franchise at this point, and its relevancy continues into the franchise’s newest title: Black Ops 6. Quickscoping itself is all about speed and precision, with the best loadouts built around these concepts.

Strongest Quickscoping loadout in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

Of the three sniper rifles available to you inĀ Black Ops 6,Ā the LW3A1 Frostline is theĀ bestĀ quickscoping one. This is because it naturally has the fastest ADS (Aim Down Sight) speed out of the three rifles, giving it a distinct advantage over the other two. While the SVD is comparable, the Frostline’s superior damage profile makes it a much better option right out of the gate. Here are the best attachments to use:

  • Optic: Remuda Dual Zoom or Kepler Red Dot
  • Barrel: Short Barrel
  • Stock Pad: Lightweight Pad
  • Magazine: Fast Mag 1
  • Comb: Quickdraw Riser
  • Laser: Target Laser
  • Stock: Balanced Stock
  • Fire Mods: Rapid Fire

While the Optic is your preference, I found the Remuda Dual Zoom to be strong while quickscoping. Its dual-zoom mechanic also lets you take longer-range shots when desired as well. Alternatively, you can use a low-zoom optic instead, like the Kepler Red Dot, which boosts your ADS Speed.

Of particular note, the Short Barrel improves your ADS speed when you do so while jumping, letting you sight down your scope as soon as possible even when airborne.

The Lightweight Pad significantly reduces the sway you suffer from while aiming down a scope.

Equipping the Fast Mag 1 not only improves your ADS speed but also your Sprint to Fire speed as well. This lets you scope from a sprint just a bit faster than the standard. The shortcoming is that you’ll have less ammo per magazine, but this is hardly an actual problem.

The Quickdraw Riser dramatically improves your ADS speed at all times, which stacks with the effects of the Short Barrel.

Additionally, the Target Laser makes aiming down sights and moving a much smoother motion, letting you stay on target, even if its just for a split moment to quickscope someone.

The Balanced Stock is a general-purpose attachment, improving your movement speed across the board.

Rapid Fire boosts your rechamber speed, letting you fire off your next round much faster for follow-up shots.

Best Quickscoping Equipment and Perks in Black Ops 6

Quickscoping inherently puts you at a disadvantage the moment you miss a shot, so you need to tailor your Equipment and Perks around ensuring you get the jump on an enemy as much as possible. Use the following setup for the best results.

  • Tactical: Spycam or Stim Shot
  • Lethal: Impact Grenade or Molotov
  • Field Upgrade: Sleeper Agent
  • Perk 1: Ninja
  • Perk 2: Tracker
  • Perk 3: Vigilance
  • Wildcard: Gunfighter

With the Spycam and Recon perks, youā€™ll have an excellent view of enemy positions, even when theyā€™re out of sight. Recon not only helps track targets but also alerts you when someone is aiming in your direction, giving you a crucial moment to either break their line of sight or take them down with a swift quickscope.

Ninja adds stealth by muffling your movements, allowing you to move quietly for surprise attacks. Tracker enhances your ability to follow enemies by revealing their recent footprints Finally, Vigilance ensures you’re alerted whenever you’re revealed on the enemy HUD, so you can reposition before they get a clear shot. This combination of perks makes you highly mobile, stealthy, and vigilant. You still need stellar reflexes to quickscope effectively, but this loadout setup will help you maintain the speed and precision required to stay competitive.
