Warzone 2.0: Best Lockwood 300 Loadout & Class Setup

I have spent 100+ hours using shotguns in Warzone 2 and here is my recommendations for Lockwood 300.

Shotguns in Warzone 2.0 are known for their explosive power, and the Lockwood 300 is at the top of the pack. This double-barrel powerhouse finds immense popularity within the player base due to its proficiency at close to medium ranges. However, the weapon can be made even better with the right mix of attachments, perks, and equipment. Therefore, you should know the best Lockwood 300 loadouts in Call of Duty (COD): Warzone 2.0!

Attachments

From the Gunsmith menu, players can select up to five attachments for their Lockwood 300. This allows for equipping modified barrels, guards, stocks, muzzles, and more.

For this loadout, I recommend the following attachments:

  • Barrel: Matuzek 812 Barrel
  • Muzzle: Bryson Series IX Choke
  • Stock: Heist Stock Mod
  • Guard: Buck-Pro
  • Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
  • More versatile and easy to handle
  • Well-balanced stats that makes it beginner-friendly
  • One shot kill capabilities
  • Auto pistol for instant switching
  • Requires Precision
  • Limited mag capacity

This loadout build is among the best class setups players can run with the Lockwood 300 in Call of Duty (COD): Warzone 2.0. This is because it plays right into the strengths of the weapon.

Perk Package

Perks have always been an integral part of the Call of Duty experience. Warzone 2.0 also heavily adopts from Modern Warfare 2’s perk system. However, unlike Modern Warfare 2, which allows for custom perk setups, Warzone 2.0 only has preset Perk Packages that players can choose from.

For our dynamic playstyle loadout, I recommend going with the Warden perk package. It has the following perks:

  • Base Perk 1: Double Time
  • Base Perk 2: Strong Arm
  • Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
  • Ultimate Perk: Overclock

Equipment

The equipment for my class setup will give players more utility and options when it comes to their engagements, whether they need to play it safe or go on the offense. As such, here are my selections for the best equipment players can use with their Lockwood 300 loadout build and class setup in Call of Duty (COD): Warzone 2.0.

  • Secondary: X13 Auto
  • Tactical: Shock Stick
  • Lethal: Thermite

Secondary: X13 Auto

The X13 Auto is an automatic upgrade of the X12 pistol, both of which take inspiration from the real-life Glock-18. It is a rapid-firing pistol that can essentially act as a mini-SMG. With a 20-round magazine and manageable recoil, the weapon compliments the Lockwood 300 by providing a reliable backup option. 

For X13, I use the following attachments:

  • Barrel: XRK Sidewinder-6 Slide 
  • Muzzle: DZS Open Comp muzzle
  • Laser: FJX Diod-70 laser
  • Rear Grip: Cronen Lima-6 as the rear grip
  • Magazine: 33 Round Mag

Best Lockwood 300 Loadout (Attacking Playstyle)

The second loadout build for the Lockwood 300 is a more aggressive class setup and is best for a more mobile playstyle in Call of Duty (COD): Warzone 2.0. This is one for players who like to take the fight to the enemy with relentless pushes and continuous progression throughout the map.

Attachments

Here are the attachments that I find go best with this style of gameplay:

  • Barrel: 11” Bryson Special
  • Laser: Point-G3P 04
  • Stock: Sweetspot Stock
  • Underbarrel: Cronen Grooveshot Grip
  • Guard: Demo Carbon Guard
  • Improved stability
  • Reduced hip-fire bullet spread
  • Better mobility
  • Effectiveness decreases with distance
  • Recoil control

Firstly, this loadout setup equips the Lockwood 300 for close-ranged engagements. For this, the setup gives the weapon much better hip-fire characteristics. This comes in the form of both increased hip fire accuracy and recoil control. 

The second major benefit of this loadout is increased mobility. For example, the player will see increased movement and sprint speeds. The quicker sprint can also aid players when they have to outrun the circle.

Perk Package

For the attacking playstyle that this loadout is made for, I recommend the Specter Perk Package. This is a useful package that bundles benefits such as greater mobility and intel. These are all highly desirable features, and they help make this loadout build and class setup the best for the Lockwood 300 in Call of Duty (COD): Warzone 2.0!

When it comes to perk packages, I use the following:

  • Base Perk 1: Double Time
  • Base Perk 2: Tracker
  • Bonus Perk: Spotter
  • Ultimate Perk: Ghost

Equipment

The equipment selection complements the loadout by providing players with options to engage at a distance. Aside from this, players will also have the utility to push up on enemy squads and clear rooms and corners where required.

In Equipment, I recommend the following options:

  • Secondary: .50 GS
  • Tactical: Smoke Grenade
  • Lethal: Drill Charge

Secondary: .50 GS

The .50 GS is a sidearm based on the Desert Eagle. It packs a punch but has a slower fire rate and increased recoil to match. In my loadout, this lets players engage at increased ranges as well. Therefore, the pistol pairs well with the Lockwood, which we have tailored for close range. 

For secondary attachments, I use the following options:

  • Muzzle: SA Peak 77
  • Barrel: SA Tyrant Fifty
  • Trigger Action: SA Competition Trigger 
  • Ammunition: .50 Pistol Overpressured +P
  • Optic: Personal Choice

My Opinion On Lockwood 300 Loaoduts

WZ 2.0 also features many close-range options, but Lockwood is one of my favorite choices. It completely dominates the close-range battles and shatters down enemies in a single blow. If you love to use shotguns, you can use one of my recommended loadouts.

Other than that, you can go through loadouts of other popular weapons such as the Lachmann Sub, FSS Hurricane, and BAS-P. Not only can they handle some extended ranges, but they also provide competitive levels of mobility. As such, they pair well with aggressive playstyles.

Conversely, if players are looking for a powerhouse that can sustain prolonged engagements and perform exceptionally at range as well, they should look at some of the LMGs the game brings. Among these, I recommend taking a look at Sakin MG38, RPK, and HCR 56. Aside from large magazine sizes, these weapons also feature less recoil and can therefore, be handled better.

For more alternatives, players should go through the Warzone 2.0 Weapons Tier List! Also, I recommend you go through Asad Ahmed’s review on Warzone 2 and check out his in-depth analysis.
