Best XM4 loadout in Warzone (Season 4)

The XM4 comes from Black Ops 6 and is still fully usable in Warzone thanks to carry-forward. It's one of the easiest assault rifles to handle: almost no recoil and a solid long-range TTK. Perfect for clean mid-to-long-range play.

You'll find its full card, code and stats in our Warzone meta tool.

The best XM4 build (long range)

• Muzzle: Compensator
• Barrel: Gain-Twist Barrel
• Optic: Willis 3x
• Magazine: Extended Mag III
• Stock: Buffer Weight Stock

The goal: maximize recoil control and damage range. The Compensator steadies the first shot, the Gain-Twist Barrel extends effective range, and the Willis 3x gives a clean sight picture at distance.

The stats that matter

• Ease: 9/10 — one of the most forgiving ARs.
• TTK: competitive at long range after its buff.
• Recoil: very low, ideal if you're new or want to play safe.

Perks and secondary

The XM4 shines at range but stays vulnerable up close. Pair it with an aggressive SMG: Dravec 45 or Carbon 57. For perks, favor regeneration and mobility to hold positions and reposition fast.

When to run the XM4?

• You're new or want a no-fuss weapon: ideal pick.
• You play posted up / support at mid-to-long range.
• If you want the very last edge of performance, also look at the MXR-17 or DS20 Mirage, at the top of the current meta.

And before you drop in, check the patch notes: a buff or nerf can change things week to week.
