The Sniper Rifle is a [[Precision weapon|precision]] [[power weapon]], which fires highly damaging projectiles at near instantaneous speeds. It features two levels of zoom, and a magazine of 4 rounds. This makes it a powerhouse at long ranges, capable of killing most enemies, including enemy players in multiplayer, with one headshot, and outranging other weapons like the [[Battle Rifle]] significantly. To compensate for its power, it is a relatively rare weapon, and ammo for it is difficult to find.

The weapon was introduced in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', and was later featured in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'' and ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' as a replacement of those games' original [[SRS99C-S2 AM sniper rifle]].
