The best Grau 5.56 loadout in Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare

First, it was the M4A1 and MP5. Then came a new contender for the throne of the best gun in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: the Grau 5.56.

This dominant assault rifle is versatile, powerful, and accurate, as you likely already know if you’ve played Warzone at all. Several years after the game released, the gun is still everywhere, and it’s everywhere because it’s that good.

The season five update for Warzone and Vanguard buffed the Grau in Warzone, increasing its max damage, max damage range, and neck damage multiplier, sending it right back up toward the top of the meta.

Here are a few of the best loadouts for the Grau 5.56 in Modern Warfare and Warzone.

Best Grau loadout in Warzone

• Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
• Barrel: Tempus 26.4″ Archangel
• Optic: VLK 3.0x Optic
• Underbarrel: Commando Foregrip
• Ammunition: 60 Round Mags

The most common loadout for Warzone maximizes range while prioritizing stealth and a large magazine. This thing melts from any range and is deadly accurate. This set of attachments has not changed in years as far as becoming the best possible build for the Grau, and it reigns supreme in the summer of 2022.

• Rear Grip: XRK Void II
• Perk: Sleight of Hand

If you like to go off the beaten path with the gunsmith, try this loadout on for size. It completely changes the look and function of the Grau by turning it into an SMG hybrid that’s strong and quick on smaller maps.
