Best Meta SMG Loadout in MW3 Warzone Season 3
The best meta SMG loadout in MW3 Warzone Season 3 is not even up for debate.
As players experience Rebirth Island for the first time in years, a new meta is slowly emerging in Call of Duty: Warzone Season 3. With a new one-shot sniper rifle entering the conversation, as well as an unexpected, dominate Battle Rifle, there are more choices in Warzone Season 3 than anyone could have anticipated. Despite all the new options in the long-range meta, though, the close-range meta is still exactly the same, featuring the most OP SMG in the game.
Here's the best meta SMG loadout in Warzone Season 3.
Best Meta SMG Loadout in MW3 Warzone Season 3
The best meta SMG in MW3 Season 3 is once again the HRM-9. The SMG has dominated the close-range meta for last few months in Battle Royale and Resurgence, and its S-Tier reign is not ending anytime soon.
Professional Warzone player, Ethan "Fifakill" Pink, showed off his updated HRM-9 loadout in a recent post on X. Check out his build below.
- Barrel: Thorn-90 Barrel
- Muzzle: ZEHMN35 Compensated Flash Hider
- Ammunition: 9mm High Grain Rounds
- Magazine: 50 Round Drum
- Stock: Folding Stock
Many players expected the HRM-9 to receive a nerf in the Season 3 update, but the weapon only got its sprint to fire time increased from 94ms to 110ms. No real buff or nerf came for the HRM-9, making the gun just as good as it was throughout Warzone Season 2.
