The BR75 holds 36 rounds in its magazine, and 216 rounds in reserve. Highly effective at longer ranges compared to the [[MA40 assault rifle]] or [[Mk50 Sidekick]], the weapon features burst-fire functionality, slight recoil that is non-progressive (meaning the weapon returns to its original position after recoil), and no bloom (the weapon doesn't lose accuracy immediately after firing).
The BR75 holds 36 rounds in its magazine, and 216 rounds in reserve. Highly effective at longer ranges compared to the [[MA40 assault rifle]], or [[Mk50 Sidekick]], the weapon features burst-fire functionality, a slowed rate of fire, and slight recoil. Players are able to zoom in with a magnification scope. The weapon notably has a four-burst kill potential.

* 130 (6.5% total) shield / body damage
* 600 (30% total) headshot damage
* 11 rounds will destroy the shield.
* One head-shot or melee will then kill the target. Note that only a ''single'' head-shot (not a full burst) is required, allowing for a 3-burst kill.
* Else, a further 5 body-bursts can be used instead (so six bursts in total).
* Note that the BR75 (Ranked) variant will kill with two body-bursts and a single melee, like in other ''Halo'' games.{{Ref/Reuse|hinfgameplay}} The ranked variant was introduced to compensate for an update that slightly reduced melee damage, to still allow players the melee combo.
 
Players are able to zoom in with a 2.5× magnification scope.{{Ref/Reuse|hinfgameplay}} It should be noted that the in-game magnification in Halo Infinite is not quite the same as the canon magnification, which is actually 2x.{{:Weapon customization/Model/BR75}}
