The Holger 556 is a new Assault Rifle in Modern Warfare 3 with balanced stats. This gun resembles the G36C from the old Modern Warfare game and the Holger LMG. The new Holger 556 is considered an underrated weapon compared to MCW and Striker in MW3. It doesn’t come with an insane amount of damage stats or line-hitting accuracy. However, you can beat the current MW3 meta with the best Holger 556 loadout in Modern Warfare 3 with a few tweaks and attachments.

  • Muzzle: Cronen OP44
  • Underbarrel: Bruen Heavy Support Grip
  • Rear Grip: Morn-20 Grip
  • Laser: FSS Ole-V Laser
  • Optic: KR V4 1x Riser

Despite its look, the Holger 556 isn’t a heavy weapon. The ADS time on it is very similar to TAQ-56, but the iron sight itself isn’t so user-friendly. That is why the KR V4 1x Riser or an Aim OP-V4 optic is recommended as the first attachment. Now you can see targets better under that red dot sight, but you still need to manage Holger 556’s recoil.

We recommend you use three attachments on Holger 556 if you want a precision-shooting rifle. Don’t worry about the mobility; we fix that with an FSS Ole-V laser. First, go for the Cronen OP44 muzzle for the recoil and gun-kick control. This attachment controls both the horizontal and vertical recoil, but this attachment alone can’t keep your shots in line.

The real issue with Holger 556 is the horizontal recoil. You can solve this with a Bruen Heavy Support underbarrel and a Morn-20 rear grip. This is the ultimate best accuracy build for the Holger 556 in MW3 – Modern Warfare 3 with the least penalty on the mobility stats.

You can have WSP Stinger and Ftac Siege beside your Holger 556, but the best option is the quick-draw Renetti as your secondary. Next on the list is the Scatter Mine as the tactical equipment for the best Holger 556 loadout in Modern Warfare 3. This is a smaller version of Cluster Mine, and you can use it to trap opponents passing on certain areas.

Now, by choosing the Engineer vest, you won’t have lethal equipment with you. You’re allowed to have two Scatter Mines instead, and the fourth gear option will unlock in the menu. Speaking of the gear, the Marksman Glove is the best option for steady shots if you like to farm kills in objective-based game modes like domination.

There’s the Lightweight Boots on the list for faster movement. Since we didn’t pick a 40-round magazine for the Holger 556, there’s the Mag Holster for faster reloading. It’s best to pick a Bone Conduction Headset as the last gear on this Holger 556 loadout in MW3; this allows for hearing footsteps better while lowering the volume of the combat’s noise.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is currently available to play on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.
