Here's the best Warzone battle rifle to use

With a vast selection of weaponry to choose from, finding the best Warzone battle rifle can be a tricky task.

With Season 4 Reloaded underway and attention already turning towards Season 5, the battle rifle category remains an underrated pick as marksman rifles, assault rifles, and SMGs continue to dominate the meta of the battle royale. Battle rifles are a hybrid between AR and Marksman, meaning they feel much heavier than some of the more popular weaponry.

Find the best Warzone battle rifle to use in our definitive tier list ranking them from the best to worst.

Warzone battle rifle tier list

Battle rifles don't feature anywhere near the meta thanks to the stronger options available in other weapon categories. With that said, we've still managed to rank them based on their in-game performance.

Among the battle rifles, the best ones to use right now are the SOA Subverter and the MTZ 762.

The SOA Subverter made a brief appearance in the meta when it first arrived to the battle royale and leads the battle rifle category alongside the MTZ 762. Both possess excellent firepower but the high recoil pattern makes them difficult to control in the heat of battle.
