The ISO 45 in Warzone 2 is an S-Tier SMG that draws inspiration from the real-life B&T APC45 firearm, currently holding the record for the game's most widely used close-range weapon.
Despite being a META weapon, the ISO 45 is not necessarily an easy-to-handle choice. Many players find optimizing their ISO 45 loadouts and configurations challenging in the latest season of Warzone 2. Those willing to push through these difficulties, however, will quickly find themselves with a truly powerful ISO 45 build that can make short work of those unfortunate enough to be in the line of fire.
The Best ISO 45 Attachments in Season 5
As an SMG, the ISO 45 lacks reach and recoil control. Therefore, it benefits from stability and range components such as the Bruen Pendulum muzzle, EXP Shear rear grip, and the.45 Auto Hollowpoint ammunition.

The Best Loadout for ISO 45
For an accuracy-oriented loadout, players can replace Spiral V3.5 with the Bruen Pendulum muzzle, have the 9” PTX Trainer on the barrel, and use the Slimline PRO optic instead of the gun’s iron sight.
The best perks for an ISO 45 loadout are Double Time, Overkill, Fast Hand, and Ghost.
The Best ISO 45 Configuration and Class Setup
For the ISO 45’s tuning, players will need to focus on damage and accuracy. They must configure the weapon for the lowest recoil and maximum velocity to land more kills in close to mid-range combat. The following is an ideal configuration for this SMG:
- Bruen Pendulum (muzzle): +0.18 → +0.15
- Spiral V3.5 Flash Hider (muzzle): -0.60 → +0.30
- 7" EX Raptor-V2 (barrel): -0.22 → -0.22
- 9" PTX Trainer (barrel): +0.10 → +0.00
- SK-3 Cheetah (stock): -1.00 → +1.55
- .45 Auto Hollowpoint (ammunition): +0.60 → +9.00
- Slimline PRO (optic): -1.80 → -2.20
- EXP Shear (rear grip): -0.35 → -0.24
Pairing the ISO 45 with the TAQ-V is an excellent idea as it allows players to handle close to long-range battles with little hassle.
