What is the best Warzone DM56 loadout?

  • Perks - Overkill, Double Time, Focus, High Alert
  • Equipment - Semtex, Flash Grenade

To optimise your DM56 loadout, you should pick the Prime Lord Heavy Barrel for enhanced bullet velocity and range, as well as reduced idle sway. Meanwhile, the Corio ELT-10 2.5 is used for clear target visibility, with 2.5x magnification.

The XTEN Phantom-5 Handstop is great for enhancing overall weapon stability as the underbarrel attachment.

It plays a pivotal role in reducing vertical recoil and controlling gun kick, helping you get a steadier platform for accurate shots.
