==Overview==
===Design details===
{{Main|SRS99 series}}
The SRS99-S7 AM is a semi-automatic, gas-operated [[sniper rifle]] that fires [[14.5×114mm]] rounds. The mounted optic is capable of 5× and 10× magnification.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} In appearance, the SRS99-S7 AM bears great similarity to the [[SRS99-S5 AM sniper rifle]], with the scope being similar to the one used by the [[SRS99-AM sniper rifle]]. The weapon's exterior has a Code 128 barcode, which when scanned translates to S7 Sniper.{{Ref/Game|Id=model|HI|In-game weapon model}}

===Usage===
The S7 is considered the culmination of decades of development and field testing during the Insurrection and Covenant war; subsequently, it was prioritized for integration into the UNSC Infinity's armament as the standard sniper rifle solution for all active deployments.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} By [[2560]], the S7 was employed by [[UNSC Armed Forces]] personnel during the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]].{{Ref/Game|Id=gameplay|HI|gameplay}}

===Variants===
*'''[[S7 Flexfire Sniper]]''': An experimental and modified variant of the sniper rifle that has an increased rate of fire, a larger magazine size of 10, and greatly increased ammo reserve. However this variant is not pinpoint accurate and only has one zoom setting, making it ineffective at long ranges.{{Ref/Game|HINF|Forge - S7 Flexfire Sniper description|Quote=Experimental high-capacity S7 Sniper rifle, designed for a focus on mid-range encounters.}}

==In-game information==
{{Main|Sniper Rifle|l1=S7 Sniper}}
{{Article quote|The S7 Sniper is a long-range precision rifle with two zoom distances. Headshots kill most targets instantly.|Description from the Academy's Weapon Drills menu.{{Ref/Game|HI|Weapon customization|Weapons Bench description}}{{Ref/Game|HI|Academy - Weapon Drills - S7 Sniper description}}}}
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.
