The Swat 5.56 is a marksman rifle in the Black Ops 6 Beta, and knowing the best loadout will enhance its performance, giving you an edge in battles. As the only marksman rifle available in this beta, it's ideal for medium to long-range engagements. Being a 3-round burst DMR, it excels at ranged combat but falls short in close-quarters encounters.

This rifle is unlocked by default, but to unlock its full potential, you'll need to level it up and it has a maximum level of 46. Initially, all attachments are locked, so it's advisable to use the default Commando loadout, which features this weapon with a pre-set configuration.

As you level up this marksman rifle, you can further customize it, and this article will guide you through the best loadout and class setup for the Swat 5.56 in Call of Duty Black Ops 6 Beta.

Recommended build:

  • Muzzle: Muzzle Brake
  • Barrel: Long Barrel
  • Optic: Redwell Reflex
  • Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
  • Fire Mods: Rapid Fire

Since the weapon is a 3-round burst, maintaining recoil control is essential for faster enemy elimination. Equipping the Muzzle Brake attachment will give you an advantage by improving kick reset speed and first-shot recoil control, which are crucial for accurate shots.

For the barrel attachment, the Long Barrel is a must, as this weapon will be used at longer distances. The added firepower in ranged battles will reduce the time-to-kill (TTK), allowing you to eliminate enemies faster.

The Redwell Reflex sight provides increased accuracy with a minimal reflex sight, allowing for more precise aiming.

The Ranger Foregrip is an excellent choice, as it significantly boosts the weapon's stability and enhances mobility. This attachment offers enhanced recoil control, along with increased movement and sprinting speed.

To further reduce the TTK, it is recommended to use the Rapid Fire mod, which increases the fire rate and gives you an edge in long-range engagements.
