Comments and Notes

This is my favorite loadout, it is a must for serious Hardcore players. The M16 is effective in both Core and Hardcore because of its 3-round burst and overrated damage. The ACOG sight gives you a better shot at longer ranges with low visibility on maps like Array, Havana, and Launch. The CZ75 is undoubtedly the greatest pistol in Black Ops(highest bullet capacity and comparable damage) besides the Makarov or ASP. The Suppressor is essential for taking the enemy from behind, giving you a great kill advantage. Frags should be your primary choice for Hardcore, because they cannot be detected(compared to the flash and sound of Semtex). Also, they have a greater throwing range than Semtex, and can roll in case the enemy tries to get away. Concussion calls no contest; it throws faster, and speed is everything in close quarters or if you're trying to keep up a killstreak. Ghost is the best perk for Hardcore, as Spy Planes are frequent. Sleight of Hand should have been your first choice, it saves precious time and gives faster reaction(if you bought Pro). If you are going for the least amount of deaths, Hacker is your best bet. It detects Claymores, Motion Sensors, and Tactical Insertions which can risk you and your team.
