Don’t let the bullet drop ruin your aiming skills in Call of Duty: Warzone. Especially with snipers, the calculation of the mechanics is important to know.

Snipers always play with very high risk, but also with the potential of a rewarding hit from long range. An experienced sniper user can easily make it to the final stage of the lobby in Warzone, while a poor ranged shooter can be quickly kicked out in the first few minutes. The bullet drop is a massive obstacle to learning the important shots. However, with experience this can be avoided.

The bullet drop depends heavily on the sniper or other weapon class you have chosen. Generally, the bullet drop first becomes noticeable at a distance of 200 to 300 metres. Any distance under 200 metres is a fairly straight shot that doesn’t need to be calculated.

Due to ballistics, bullets fall in an arcuate shape. Therefore, at distances over 300 metres, you must aim visibly above the spot to be hit where the bullet will eventually land. This requires micro-adjustments as well as centimetres, but not the cross-hair movement.

Bullet drop varies depending on the rifle. If you plan to do a lot of long range shooting, avoid using rifles like the Dragunov as this will result in terrible bullet drops. The HDR and HDR Pro attachment is able to compensate for the weak bullet drops of most weapons. With this efficient adjustment, the ballistic obstacle at incredibly long ranges is virtually non-existent.

Target selection is also an important factor in bullet drops. Shots can naturally land more easily on targets that are standing still. But not every opponent will stand still. If you are looking for a moving target, you have to guide the shots in the respective direction of movement of the target, estimate the speed of the opponent and take the bullet drop into account.
