  • Barrel: 22.4″ Task Force
  • Stock: Marathon Stock
  • Handle: Airborne Lever Wrap
  • Magazine: STANAG 8 Rnd Tube

We’ll start with the best Cold War .410 Ironhide loadout with the Infantry V-Choke muzzle to give the .410 Ironhide a tighter ADS Spread. This will let you get more consistent one-shot kills when aiming down sights, especially over longer ranges.

The best Cold War .410 Ironhide loadout can secure kills with a single shot, and the 22.4″ Task Force barrel gives you increased damage, helping you outgun other Shotgun users. The Marathon Stock lets you move faster while sprinting, shooting, and aim walking.

The Airborne Lever Wrap will notably boost the weapon’s reload quickness, ADS time, and flinch resistance. These are the .410 Ironhide’s weaker aspects, so we strongly recommend equipping this.

Finally, we’ll cap off this loadout with the STANAG 8 Rnd Tube magazine to make sure that you have plenty of bullets. This makes up for the weapon’s relatively small magazine size, and you don’t want to get caught reloading.
