Meta TAQ-56 Attachments in Warzone 2

The XTEN Ported 290 is the best TAQ-56 muzzle for Warzone 2 as it greatly decreases vertical recoil.

Next, our favorite optic for long-range guns is the Aim OP-V4, but choose whichever one you like the most.

The FTAC Ripper 56 is a solid choice for an underbarrel as it reduces horizontal and vertical recoil by 4% and gives additional recoil stabilization.

Long-range guns need all of the additional bullet velocity they can get, and the 5.56 High Velocity ammunition increases this by a huge 44%. For this reason, it’s a must-have attachment for the TAQ-56.

Finally, to let you take down more enemies before reloading, we’ve opted for the 60 Round Mag.
