The best CR-56 AMAX loadout in Warzone

Call of Duty's season three for Black Ops 6 is like stepping into a time machine back into Warzone's heyday of 2020, including Verdansk and several returning weapons, like the CR-56 AMAX. The CR-56 AMAX could be the new meta loadout in Warzone for mid-range battles. Early signs indicate that this gun will be the top pick among players in the return to Verdansk in BO6 season three, meaning you should level it up as soon as possible. This gun is "deadly at mid-range" like its in-game description suggests, so you can use it for that or even long-range encounters in Verdansk. You can even pair it up with the one-shot-kill HDR sniper rifle, too. Here's our pick for the best attachments to use on the AMAX in Warzone season three.

The Game Over blueprint for the AMAX, which is found in the 3,000 CoD Point Tracer Pack: Digital Dreamin' Mastercraft Bundle, has a sneaky borderline "pay-to-win" attachment in the Willis 3x since it looks and performs so similarly to the VLK 3.0 scope from Warzone's past, and sweaties are jumping all over the bundle. If you don't want to spend the cash, I don't blame you, but you don't need to worry because the normal Willis 3x works just fine with this loadout, or the Jason Armory 2x as well. Regardless of which you choose, this weapon does solid damage at mid-range in Verdansk. Pace your shots and even mount up on something and you may be able to take down foes at a long range in Verdansk's open fields, but make sure to bring a good SMG like the C9 with you if you are looking to head indoors for close-quarters combat.

These first five attachments are must-use on the AMAX, and the final three can be added as part of a Gunfighter loadout, which is what we've chosen to go with. But if you'd prefer the cheaper weapon-buy alternative, then swap out the Rear Grip, Stock, and Fire Mods.

  • Special: Sirin 9mm

    • Muzzle: Suppressor
    • Barrel: Long Barrel

As I've chosen Gunfighter for this build, I like to bring the Sirin 9mm with me in my loadout just in case I haven't found or bought a strong SMG just yet, but a good close-range gun can be found on the ground or dropped by a teammate just as easily.
