Best Swat 5.56 loadout in Black Ops 6 beta

The Swat 5.56 is a powerful burst Marksman Rifle in Black Ops 6 that can do some serious damage at range, especially with the best attachments.

Those who prefer burst weapons over fully automatic options will feel right at home with the Swat, so here’s the best BO6 loadout for it, including the meta attachments and Perks to use.

Best Swat 5.56 loadout attachments in Black Ops 6 beta

• Optic: OM3 ’92 Holo
• Muzzle: Suppressor
• Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
• Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip
• Fire Mods: Rapid Fire

Kicking off our best Swat 5.56 loadout in Black Ops 6 is the OM3 ’92 Holo optic, which is a nice holographic sight for medium to long ranges, which is where the weapon excels.

To keep you hidden on the minimap and prevent enemy players from knowing your whereabouts while gunning enemies down from powerful positions, we’ve selected the Suppressor. Then, to boost the weapon’s damage range and bullet velocity, you can’t go wrong with the Reinforced Barrel.

The Quickdraw Grip will improve ADS speeds so you can lock on to enemies nice and fast, while the Rapid Fire Fire Mod lets you get a second burst off quicker so you can secure the kill.

Best Perks & Equipment to run with Swat 5.56

• Wildcard: Perk Greed
• Perk 1: Ghost
• Perk 2: Gung-Ho
• Perk 3: Guardian
• Perk 4: Flak Jacket
• Lethal: Frag
• Tactical: Stim Shot
• Field Upgrade: Trophy System

First off, you’ll want to equip the Perk Greed Wildcard, as it allows you to select four Perks to help you dominate with the Swat 5.56. Ghost is a no-brainer, as it keeps you off your enemy’s minimap so long as you’re moving.

Next, Gung-Ho is the perfect Perk to give your loadout a boost in mobility, as it allows you to reload and use Equipment while sprinting.

Then, as you’ll want to use the Swat 5.56 in positions of power such as head glitches, it’s a great gun to use on objective points, so we’ve opted for Guardian in the Perk 3 slot. This Perk gives you faster healing while capturing and holding objectives.

Lastly, Flak Jacket is a top choice for any loadout, as it protects you from incoming explosive and fire damage.

As for Equipment, I get a lot of success with Frags just by cooking and throwing them in places I know enemies might be. Then, the Stim Shot is a perfect way for you to get your health back after a fight instead of waiting for the regen to kick in.

As you’ll be on the objective a lot with this loaodut, the Trophy System is another way to prevent explosive damage from ruining your streak.

Best Swat 5.56 alternatives

The Swat 5.56 is one of two Marksman Rifles in the beta, and the DM-10 is a great alternative to the Swat 5.56 that can be unlocked at Level 25 in the second weekend of the beta.

If you want a fully-automatic alternative that’s more tuned for medium range, the AMES 85 and AK-74 are both top ARs that pack a punch.
