Best Kar98k gear in Call of Duty: Vanguard

As one of the top tier long range weapons in Call of Duty: Vanguard, the Kar98k sniper definitely has a solid target in his sights and is extremely easy to use in terms of accuracy. However, this iteration of the gun doesn't have the same power it did in Warzone and Black Ops Cold War. While leveling up can be a slow process filled with hit-markers, there is a specific group of attachments that provide the kind of Kar98k veteran players are used to.

When building this Kar98k setup, the selection of accessories used will primarily ensure that the sniper can handle kills again with a long range shot, while also giving your accuracy a nice boost. Here are which attachments you will need to see these benefits.

• Muzzle: SD silencer
• barrel: Krausnick 520mm Rapido
• under the barrel: M1941 Manual stop
• Magazine: 8mm Klauser 3-Round
• Type of ammunition: stretched
• Action: VDD 98
• Rear handle: Fabric handle
• competence: Quickscope
• kit: Deep breath
• Benefits: Ghost, Forward Intel e Scavenger
• Lethal: Demolition charge
• Tactical: S-Mina 44

Since having the Klauser 3-Round 8mm magazine seems like a risky decision, most other magazine sizes will actually reduce any damage from your shot by 50 percent - and that's not the way to go if you want one-shot kills. Thankfully, the attachment reduces the reload speed to just 2,2 seconds, with your damage score still at 92 out of 100.

Since you'll only have three bullets per round, we've included VDD 98, M1941 and Quickscope accessories to dramatically reduce horizontal and vertical recoil. In addition, the Krausnick rod and the Fabric Grip further increase the ADS rate with a total increase of 12%. Finally, since different types of ammunition reduce a sniper's damage range, we recommend the elongated type. Without having to sacrifice range, this will provide a 30% bonus to projectile speed.

To reassure you, Scavenger is a must when you find an edge that rewards you with additional ammo from the battlefield. We've also included Ghost and Forward Intel, arguably the two best perks for stealth-minded gamers, but you should definitely tweak this if that's not your style of play.
