Warzone is the same; with every major update, the weapons are completely adjusted, and there will always be an excellent weapon that just works. In the current Season 2 Reloaded update, there is one assault rifle to rule them all: the Holger 556.

Thanks to a very popular Warzone YouTuber, many players are aware of the new meta-assault rifle, the Holger 556. The Youtuber Metaaphor made a video with the best loadout for this AR that has been buffed a lot, and even the drop for long-range has decreased. 

This is his loadout for the Holger 556:

Metaphor is really on point with this loadout; without any recoil and very good long-range accuracy, he is dominating matches. This loadout also helps the velocity of the bullets get to the target faster. In the coming weeks, this AR will dominate every match of the game. Players are very on board after the new Season 2 Reloaded update, which brought an incredible amount of content. 

Season 2 Reloaded added a collaboration with Warhammer 40K: Space Marine with amazing skins; there is also a remake of the classic Modern Warfare 3 map, Das Haus. As for fans of Modern Warfare Zombies, there is new content in Operation Deadbolt. The official Call of Duty website has shared more information about upcoming collaborations and bundles that will drop in the store soon. Fans have a lot to test with the current update.
