Best long-range XM4 loadout in Warzone
The XM4 is very solid at long-range. Its bodyshot DPS is on the low end, but a decent headshot multiplier and fantastic neck-shot multiplier keep its time-to-kill in a great spot. Here’s how to put it together:
Muzzle: Agency Suppressor Barrel: Task Force Barrel Optic: Axial Arms 3x Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip Ammunition: STANAG 60 Round
You need the Agency Suppressor on pretty much all of your guns. You can stay off the radar and increase your range values all in one fell swoop. Of course, there’s a slight mobility penalty but that’s nothing compared to the benefits. The Task Force Barrel is the go-to for long-range AR builds, as it provides the biggest bullet velocity and damage range increases. You can go with a Ranger Barrel instead to boost your handling and mobility, but you will lose the damage range and recoil bonuses from the Task Force, which the XM4 sorely needs. The Field Agent Grip is a great underbarrel choice, as it noticeably reduces recoil magnitude and makes it a whole lot easier to stay accurate at long ranges. We like the Axial Arms 3x as the zoomed opitc, as it has the cleanest sight picture. Some players prefer the Royal and Kross 4x though, so use whatever feels best in your hands. In your fifth and final slot, use a 60 Round Mag to ensure you can fight entire teams without having to reload. If you have the recoil under control, you can try swapping the Field Agent Grip for an Airborne Elastic Wrap to boost that ADS speed. Alternatively, try a Ranger Barrel. You’ll lose a bit of damage range and recoil control, but you will regain some mobility and ADS speed.
Secondary weapon
Most players will run a long-range Assault Rifle like this in tandem with an SMG. Both MP5s and the MAC-10 are popular choices at the moment. The OTs 9 also works very nicely. For other possibilities, check out our guide to the best SMGs in Warzone!
Best sniper support XM4 loadout
The XM4 can’t compete with the damage of the Cold War AK-47 at sniper support range, however, it does have excellent mobility. With this build, you will have base and sprint movement speeds better than most ARs, and on par with the CW AK. Plus, the ADS movement speed is even better. Here’s how to build it out:
Muzzle: Agency Suppressor Laser:Tiger Team Spotlight Stock: Raider Stock Underbarrel: Bruiser Grip Ammunition: STANAG 60 Round
The Agency Suppressor is still great on a close-range build, as the stats it provides for a single attachment slot are just too valuable to pass up. Its mobility penalties don’t mean much when you mix in the Tiger Team Spotlight and Raider Stock combo. These two attachments give you incredible mobility and are meta-shapers for sniper supports right now. The Bruiser Grip pushes the mobility even farther and makes up for some of the lost hipfire accuracy from the Raider Stock. Finally, we still like the 60 Round Magazine on this faster firing AR, but you can go with the 45 Rounder for better handling if you prefer. If you want improved handling speeds, swap the Agency Suppressor for a standard Suppressor, or trade the Bruiser Grip in for an Airborne Elastic Wrap. You can also replace the Bruiser with a Ranger Barrel to get a bit of recoil control and bullet velocity. You can get away with a 45 Round Magazine too, but we prefer the full 60. Make sure you hang onto your Tiger Team and Raider combo though; that’s where the money’s at on sniper support builds.
Secondary weapon
For your Sniper Rifle, we recommend a Swiss K31 or Kar98k. If you prefer to sit still overlooking longer sightlines though, use a ZRG.
