Best SG-12 loadout in Warzone

The SG-12 is the newest shotgun to drop in Call of Duty: Warzone Season 2. And if you want to burst enemies from close range with this weapon from Black Ops 4, we’ve got you covered with our best SG-12 loadout in Warzone.

Compared to other semi-auto shotguns, the SG-12 boasts a faster fire rate while having the longest damage range in its class. This could be a great secondary weapon for close-quarters to near mid-range combat if you love running and gunning with a shotgun.

Once you’ve unlocked the weapon from the Escalation Directive event, you can equip our best SG-12 Warzone loadout below and start picking off opponents in Battle Royale or Resurgence.

Our SG-12 build for Warzone doubles down on the weapon’s strengths—solid base damage range and fire rate—while tightening hip fire pellet spread to enhance your accuracy in chaotic close-range fights.

Having the Hawker Reach Barrel keeps your damage effective within 10 meters. The LW Trigger makes your TTK (time-to-kill) faster thanks to the boosted rate of fire.

With the Fan Modified Choke and Convergence Box Laser enhancing your hip fire precision, you can go for a run-and-gun shooting style when duels get up close and personal. Make sure to slot in the H-Comb Extended Mag so you can deal with fully plated enemies.

  • Primary: EGRT-17 assault rifle or Hawker HX sniper rifle
  • Melee: Personal preference
  • Tactical: Stim Shot
  • Lethal: Semtex or Combat Axe
  • Perk 1: Drill Instructor
  • Perk 2: Sprinter
  • Perk 3: Adaptive

For your medium to long-range primary weapon, I recommend our EGRT-17 build if you’re an assault rifle main, or our Hawker HX build if you prefer using a sniper.

Select Stim Shot as your tactical to get a quick burst of speed and healing during close-quarters engagements. As for your lethal, pick Semtex to effectively clear rooms and corners, or Combat Axe for instant finishes so you can save up some ammo.

Moving on to perks, I highly suggest going for Drill Instructor, Sprinter, and Adaptive. With this mobility-focused perk package, you can easily outmaneuver enemies and maximize hip firing in tight gunfights.
