The NZ-41 Assault Rifle in Warzone

Looking for the best NZ-41 loadout in Warzone Pacific?Caldera is here and brings a hoard of new weapons along with it intoWarzone. There are a lot of new toys out there, but some of them will feel quite familiar. The NZ-41 is a high-damage, slow-firingAssault Riflethat will make fans of guns like theCR-56 AMAXandEM2feel right at home. With the right build, the NZ-41 is a mid to long-range beast. Our guide will break that build down.Killing folks with top-tier guns in Call Of Duty: WarzoneWatch on YouTubeBest NZ-41 Warzone Pacific loadoutThere isn’t much you can do to up the NZ-41’s range. Thankfully, its base damage range is already solid, so we’re focusing on minimizing recoil to keep you on target.Muzzle:MX SilencerBarrel:Orbweaver 360mm BCUnderbarrel:M1941 Hand StopOptic:ZF4 3.5x Rifle ScopeMagazine:NoneAmmunition:LengthenedGrip:Rubber GripStock:Orbweaver E PackProficiency:BraceKit:Fully LoadedAs is typical, we’re starting off with anMX Silencer. This is Vanguard’s answer to the Monolithic and Agency Suppressors, providing sound and radar suppression alongside an accuracy boost. Attach that MX Silencer to anOrbweaver 360mm BCbarrel, which provides some huge recoil reductions. It also hurts your mobility, but that’s a common and acceptable sacrifice on a long-range build. Underneath, use anM1941 Hand Stopto pick up even more recoil control for a small hipfire penalty. Above, we’ve gone with aZF4 3.5x Rifle Scopeto get the requisite zoom for long-range fights.Our magazine recommendation is an odd one, in thatwe recommend you don’t use a magazine attachment at all. The caliber conversion magazines reduce the NZ-41’s damage range too much to be worth considering, and there is no extended magazine for the default, .303 caliber. In Solos, the .303 20 Round Fast Mag is worth a look for the faster reloads, but 20 rounds are too few for any other mode. This is the NZ-41’s biggest weakness, but the default 30 rounds still go a long way at this low fire rate and high damage. For the ammunition type, go withLengthenedrounds to increase your bullet velocity, a big help on long-range shots. Then, pop aRubber Gripon for a little more recoil control with no downsides.On the back end, use anOrbweaver E Packstock and theBraceproficiency for even more recoil control. This is about as much recoil control as you can reasonably pack onto an Assault Rifle, and will make it easy to stay on target with your NZ-41. Finally, take theFully Loadedkit to top up your ammunition when you grab your loadout.Secondary weaponA long-range rifle like this needs a close-rangeSMGcompanion. TheM1928makes an excellent complement with its high rate of fire and enormous magazines.
