The CR-56 AMAX may no longer be the most popular AR in Warzone, but Swagg’s new Sniper Rifle loadout makes it perfect for claiming those all-important longshot kills on Caldera. 

Having a powerful AR loadout you can rely on in Warzone is incredibly important. While the Cooper Carbine and Automaton continue to dominate the competition, Swagg has made a new loadout for the CR-56 AMAX

This classic AR used to dominate Warzone lobbies in past seasons thanks to its high damage, fantastic accuracy, and excellent range. It may no longer be the best Assault Rifle in Warzone, but that doesn’t mean it can’t tear through your opponents.

Unlike our own CR-56 AMAX loadout, Swagg has transformed this AR into a Sniper Rifle. Because of this, attachments that greatly enhance the gun’s range have been utilized. First up is the Monolithic Suppressor and XRK Zodiac S440

Both these attachments drastically increase the AMAX’s effective damage range, ensuring that your shots remain impactful across mid to long-range firefights. As this is a ranged build, Swagg has attached the Sniper Scope and M67 10-R Mags.

While it may have a sluggish ADS speed and horizontal bounce, it does enable you to zero in on those head and bodyshots. Just be sure to space out your firing a bit or simply pull down on your mouse/analog stick to offset the recoil. 

Lastly, the Sleight of Hand perk greatly reduces the time it takes to reload. This means you can get back to laying down fire and consistently counter any pesky snipers. So, there you have it, one lethal CR-56 AMAX Sniper loadout that you should try when next dropping into Caldera.
