Marksman Rifles have always been a lackluster weapon class in the Call of Duty franchise, but MW3 aims to disregard that sentiment. We finally have an MR that can contend with some of the best weapons in the game right now, so let’s look at the best MTZ Interceptor loadout in MW3.
Best MTZ Interceptor Loadout in Warzone
Best Attachments
Who would have thought that Marksman Rifles would become one of the single best classes in the entire game? These high damage, high accuracy, low fire rate weapons have emerged to be the most competitive weapons you can get your hands on.
The MTZ Interceptor is at the height of this new revelation, coming in as the savior of all those who wish to turn away from the destructive damage of the DG-58. This marksman rifle reliably kills enemies in 2-3 shots, downing them incredibly fast, where one final bullet sends them to the Gulag. For the best performance, you will want to slip on certain attachments to let this beast truly shine in Urzikstan.
The best attachments are as follows:
- Muzzle: VT Spiritfire Suppressor
- Barrel: MTZ Blackthorn Barrel
- Opic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5X
- Magazine: 20 Round Magazine
- Stock: MCW Blackjack
You’ll need this combination of attachments for reliable shots and the maximum amount of range that can be squeezed from the MTZ. First, you’ll want the VT Spiritfire Suppressor as the de facto range-increasing muzzle. As a plus, it grants you protection from the minimap when you fire your weapon. The MTZ Blackthorn Barrel further increases our damage range, helping out with recoil slightly and nullifying idle sway.
Our optic of choice is the esteemed Corio Eagleseye 2.5X as the single best sight in Warzone. It offers a clean sight for easy shots but just enough magnification to net long-range kills, while also being competent in close-quarters combat. The MTZ Interceptor is still an unruly weapon at times, so we use the MCW Blackjack stock to dampen some that recoil at the sacrifice of mobility.
To top it all off we use the 20-round magazine for the times where 10 bullets just isn’t enough.
Best Perks
Those familiar with the old Perk system of MW2 will rejoice to hear that it remains the same in Warzone, but with a few new faces added to the mix.
The best perks are as follows:
- Perk 1: Sleight of Hand
- Perk 2: Double Time
- Perk 3: Resupply
- Perk 4: High Alert
Sleight of Hand and Double Time are classic perks that need no introduction. Respectively, they speed up your gameplay with faster reloads and longer Tac Sprints. Crossing the map and reloading your primary has never been quicker and easier with this pair.
Resupply is an end-game-type perk, periodically supplying you with tactical and lethal equipment to ensure you always have smokes or grenades handy. Finally, High Alert has emerged as an incredible pick as it forewarns you of threats before they open fire, protects you, offers information, and can be the difference between a 2nd place finish, and a coveted win.

Best MTZ Interceptor Attachments
Simply put, the MTZ Interceptor in MW3 is a finely tuned monster.
It has a perfect balance between range, damage, accuracy, and handling. Assault rifles will pale in comparison to the damage output of this weapon, but you must hit your shots for it to be truly effective. SMG players will continue to be nuisances in CQC, but with fast reactions and some good gameplay, you can even outpace those slippery players.
There isn’t much the MTZ Interceptor cannot do, and it’s a surprisingly good weapon for the Marksman Rifle class. It is likewise the best choice for a fast-paced CQC MR, and equally fantastic as a long-range, high-accuracy sniper pick.
The best attachments are as follows:
- Muzzle: VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor
- Barrel: MTZ Longshot Pro Barrel
- Underbarrel: DR-6 Handstop
- Magazine: 20 Round Magazine
- Optic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5x
First off we have the VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor to keep us off the minimap and for a large reduction in recoil to keep our shots on point. The MTZ Longshot Pro Barrel offers increased stability across the board, further addressing recoil, gun kick, increasing range, and reducing sway. For some mobility increases, we use the DR-6 Handstop for better ADS speeds, movement speeds, and sprint speeds.
Finally, we have the 20-round magazine since 10 bullets are rarely enough, and the Corio Eagleseye 2.5x as our optic of choice.
Best MTZ Interceptor Perks
The MTZ Interceptor is best used when posted up in a nice corner or section of the map so that you can control players coming and going, taking down enemies while providing cover to allies. To that end, we must equip some choice perks to help us achieve that goal.
The best perks are as follows:
- Vest: Gunner Vest
- Gloves: Marksman Gloves
- Gear: EOD Padding
The Gunner Vest comes with the classic perk Overkill, allowing us to take two primary weapons into combat. You’ll want to mix the MTZ Interceptor with one of the best SMGs right now. As the name suggests, you’ll want to slip on some Marksman Gloves to ensure that your shots hit true, and so that you can reduce idle sway as you stalk your prey.
EOD Padding will give you protection against explosive hazards and grenades thrown to flush you out of your position. Sadly, due to our preferred Vest, we are not able to choose a pair of boots, but we think this exchange is more than worth it.
That does it for our best MTZ Interceptor loadout in Modern Warfare 3 in Warzone guide. Be sure to check out our related content on Call of Duty, Warzone, and everything in between.
