== | ===Operational history=== | ||
The Series 5 came into prominence within the UNSC towards the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]]. In the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|postwar era]], it has become a staple of the military's arsenal;{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} by [[2558]] the Series 5 had become the model most highly-produced by Misriah manufacturing facilities.{{Ref/Reuse|H4VG}} | |||
== | ==In-game information== | ||
{{Main|Sniper_Rifle (gameplay)#Halo 4}} | |||
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. | |||
