Warzone 2 expert WhosImmortal has revealed an underrated Assault Rifle loadout with a fast TTK that’s capable of outgunning SMGs and other Assault Rifles in Season 2 Reloaded.

When Season 2 Reloaded went live in Warzone 2, players began searching for the guns to use after the Call of Duty title’s meta was impacted by the arrival of the Tempus Torrent Marksman Rifle as well as buffs and nerfs for existing weapons.

Many guns that were previously forgotten are now getting the spotlight, and Warzone 2 guru WhosImmortal highlighted an Assault Rifle that is worth giving attention to because of its impressive TTK.

According to WZRanked, the Kastov-74u currently has a pick rate of just 0.9%. While it’s not one of the most popular weapon choices in Warzone 2, WhosImmortal praised the Kastov-74u’s performance.

He claimed that the weapon is capable of “outgunning other Rifles and SMGs” in Season 2 Reloaded thanks to its high bullet velocity. WhosImmortal then revealed his loadout that can “consistently win” in Warzone 2.

WhosImmortal’s Warzone 2 Kastov-74u loadout

  • Barrel: BR209 Barrel
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
  • Stock: Markeev R7 Stock
  • Rear Grip: Demo-X2 Grip
  • Magazine: 45 Round Mag

WhosImmortal starts off the Kastov-74u loadout by equipping the Demo-X2 Grip to bring the gun’s recoil under control, allowing you to accurately land shots. The BR209 Barrel improves the weapon’s ADS speed and movement speed, making it into an “SMG and AR hybrid.”

The FSS OLE-V Laser buffs the sprint-to-fire speed and stability. In order to improve the gun’s mobility, the Markeev R7 Stock boosts its sprint speed and crouch movement speed. Finally, the 45 Round Mag gives you plenty of ammo to take down multiple enemies.

WhosImmortal describes the Kastov-74u in Warzone 2 as a “very aggressive, very fast TTK Rifle” that feels a lot like an SMG. The weapon is extremely versatile, being deadly in both close and medium-range battles.
