Best AMES 85 loadout in Call of Duty Black Ops 6

The AMES 85 is one of the first assault rifles you’ll unlock in Call of Duty Black Ops 6, and it’s fantastic for mid to long-range scenarios. Here’s how to make the most out of this weapon in the game with your loadout.

What is the best AMES 85 loadout in Call of Duty Black Ops 6?

The best way to go about this AMES 85 loadout is to increase the weapon’s accuracy and firepower. We also want to improve the magazine by including more ammo. To fulfill this, you’ll need the following attachments:

• Optic: Dobrych 4X
• Muzzle: Ported Compensator
• Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
• Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
• Magazine: Extended Mag I
• Rear Grip: Commando Grip
• Stock: Balanced Stock
• Fire Mod: 5.56 NATO FMJ or Rapid Fire

Your choice of optic should be determined by how you play the game. If you want to use this as a mid-ranged weapon mostly, go for the Dobrych 4X. The sight line is perfect for me, but you may prefer a different scope.If you want a longer-ranged option pick the Blandwell 7X. Personally, I don’t like to use a sniper-like scope with assault rifles due to the recoil, but it’s up to you.

Other Attachments you should add

The Suppressor might be the pick for a sniper like the LW3AI Frostline, but for this assault rifle, I prefer the Ported Compensator. You gain better accuracy, improved recoil control, and better handling.

In order to cause a lot of damage to your opponents, you’ll want a devastating barrel. Thankfully, the Reinforced Barrel will do the trick with an increased damage range and bullet velocity.

The Ranger Foregrip provides a better sprinting movement speed and increased recoil control. It makes this weapon more dynamic and allows you to be on the move from position to position faster.

As the AMES 85 lacks ammo, it’s best to have an Extended Mag I in your attachments list. It unfortunately lowers the Reload Quickness but with how fast you lose ammo with this gun, it’s worth it.

For the Rear Grip, you should choose the Commando Grip. It increases your Aim Down Sight Speed and Sprint to Fire Speed, letting you be more dynamic on the battlefield. If you like to slide and dive in Call of Duty Black Ops 6, however, you may want the Ergonomic Grip instead.

Next, the Stock should be the Balanced Stock. It increases a lot, including:

• Strafing Movement Speed
• Movement Speed
• Hipfire Movement Speed
• Aim Walking Movement Speed

Having an increase in this many stats helps the AMES 85 become adaptable to many different situations.

Lastly, you’ll want either the 5.56 NATO FMJ or the Rapid Fire mods on your gun. Your penetration and scorestreak damage increases with the 5.56 NATO FMJ while the Rapid Fire gives you an impressive fire rate for close-quarters action. Personally I prefer the former because the Rapid Fire has many downsides like a decreased damage range and bullet velocity. With all of these attachments, your AMES 85 loadout in Black Ops 6 will be dangerous.
