Hyperburst your opponents with this SVA 545 build for Modern Warfare 3
Looking for the best SVA 545 loadout in Modern Warfare 3?The SVA 545 is one of thebest Assault Rifles in Modern Warfare 3and is often among the recommended picks for players.
VeteranCall Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3players will notice that the SVA 545 shares a similarity with the Call Of Duty: Black Ops' AN-94, particularly with its hyperburst feature. Every trigger squeeze lets loose two shots at an extraordinarily fast firing rate, offering up the potential to massacre the opposition as long as your aim is true.
If you’ve got steady sights and enjoy racking up kills in rapid succession, you’re in the right place. Below we’ll walk you through building the best SVA 545 loadout and class setup in Modern Warfare 3, ensuring that you’ll mow down targets left and right with this powerful weapon.
Why use the SVA 545 in MW3?
Mastery of the hyperburst and run-and-gun tactics are essential to making the most out of the SVA 545. This weapon rewards accuracy, ambushing opponents with two fast headshots (and maybe a third to the torso), and an all-around aggressive playstyle. There’s more of a difficulty curve present here than with otherAssault Rifles, but the SVA 545 is absolutely worth the practice if you have patience and a practiced trigger finger.
Our loadout strengthens the SVA 545’s run-and-gun potential by boosting its damage, range, and mobility. Thanks to the hyperburst feature, there’s less of a focus on recoil control and handling with this loadout than we might suggest for other weapons. As long as you hit those first few shots, in other words, you’re good.
The HMRES Mod Suppressor ups bullet velocity and keeps you undetectable via radar, which is exactly what you want when vaulting into position to get the drop on enemies.
Select the Markeev R11 Stock for an increase in gun kick control, movement speed, firing aim stability, and sprint speed - basically, everything you require for a mobile run-and-gun build that stays off the enemy’s map until you’re right behind them.
The SVA 545’s damage range isn’t the highest from the get-go, but 5.45 High Grain ammo paired with the bullet velocity from the HMRES Mod Suppressor is an excellent combo that’ll pack a punch. Once again, it’s all about getting a quick kill with those first two shots.
While it’s important to stay mobile with the SVA 545, a bigger magazine is also better, especially if you struggle with hyperburst accuracy. The 45 Round Mag strikes a nice balance between upping ammo capacity without wrecking your mobility too much.
Optics are a personal preference, but our go-to recommendation is the Slate Reflector. Its easy rectangular shape and perfectly sized laser dot are great for the precision aiming required to nail hyperburst shots, and it also doesn’t obstruct much screen space. Alternatively, you may prefer to shoot without an optic. If this is the case, equip the SVA 545 with the STV Precision Barrel for even more bullet velocity and range, with the only trade-off a slight drop in mobility.
Striker, KV Inhibitor, Renetti.
If you find yourself missing your shots and need the reliability of aSMG, you can’t go wrong with theStrikeras an excellent supplementary primary. Check out ourMW3 best Striker loadoutfor more details on which attachments are a handy match for one of the most popular guns in Modern Warfare 3.
On the other hand, if you’re contending with hosts of opponents at long-range, you’re better off putting the SVA 545 and Striker aside and going for a sniper rifle like theKV Inhibitor. TheLongbowis another possible choice, but the KV Inhibitor boasts a semi-automatic firing rate that’ll feel more familiar to SVA 545 users than bolt-action firing.
Of course, to have a secondary weapon like those mentioned above you’ll need access to either the Overkill or Gunner Vest which will allow two primary weapons within your loadout. If you’re rocking a different Vest (like the one we recommend below), you’ll need a good sidearm. One of thebest pistols in Modern Warfare 3, is theRenetti. The Renetti is a three-shot burst pistol that becomes a great all-arounder when equipped with the JAK Ferocity Carbine. If you want a secondary weapon with fantastic accuracy, damage and handling, the Renetti is a top pick.
Infantry Vest, Lightweight Boots, Scavenger Gloves, Deployable Cover, EOD Padding, Frag Grenade, Battle Rage.
For yourVestandBootsof choice, we reccomend theInfantry VestandLightweight Bootsfor the tactical sprint buffs. TheScavenger Gloveswill keep your ammunition levels high, though you can also take theQuick-Grip Glovesif you’d prefer to speedily swap between weapons.
Since you’ll be going full aggro with the SVA 545, there’s always a chance that you might become a target for desperate explosive manoeuvres. TheEOD Paddingis a niceGearoption to keep yourself safe, though you can also takeBone Conductionto keep an ear out for any foes who might be following your lead and masking themself from radar.
You can go with whatever combination ofLethalandTacticalequipment that you prefer, but we like aFrag Grenadefor disorienting targets and dealing damage when all else fails. Using the SVA 545 often puts you in the heat of battle, so keepBattle Rageequipped for health regeneration and another increase to tactical sprint. Lastly, for your Field Equipment choice, there are plenty of solid options, but we like theDeployable Cover, for a bit of extra protection when you’re bogged down by enemies.

MCW.
There’s definitely an appeal to the SVA 545’s unique firing capabilities that aren’t there with MW3’s other Assault Rifles, but with that uniqueness comes the potential for frustration. If you can’t master the hyperburst, there’s no shame in switching to another weapon. TheMCWremains the most popular Assault Rifle in the game with better damage and range values than the SVA 545, at least without any attachments.
And that’s a wrap on our SVA 545 loadout for Modern Warfare 3. For more comprehensive details on top-tier weapons in the game, see our list of thebest guns in Modern Warfare 3, along with ourMW3 best loadoutsguide.
