Specifications

Variants
BR85N Service Rifle
A variant of the BR85 featuring a smart-link open-topped holographic sight. Was extensively used by the UNSC in October, 2558.[1][2] Often fielded with a Recon Sight.
Classic BR85N
Battle Rifle with Classic Sight. Tactical configuration fitted with rugged combat optics preferred by veteran Spartans.
Longshot BR85N
Battle Rifle with Longshot Sight. Marksman configuration preferred by many Requiem veterans.
Sentinel BR85N
Battle Rifle with Sentinel Sight. Delta-Six special forces configuration with variable-zoom 4x/6x optics; optimized for long-range, pinpoint lethality.
BR85N attachments
- Long Barrel: Increases effective range.
- Laser Targeter: Increases weapon accuracy.
- Silencer: Reduces visibility on enemy Motion Trackers when firing.
- Stabilization Jets: Helps control recoil.
- Kinetic Bolts: Augments knockback and damage against vehicles.
- Energy Bayonet: Increases melee damage and range.
BR85 Heavy Barrel Service Rifle
- Main article: BR85HB battle rifle
A heavy-barreled version of the BR85 featuring a telescopic scope.[3]
Operational history
Initially fielded late in the Covenant War, manufacturing concerns and logistical issues involved with its ammunition meant the BR85 service rifle was not widely adopted until after the conflict ended.[1]

Changes from BR85HB in Halo 4
- More open sight picture due to new open-topped reflex sight replacing the smart-linked telescopic sight
- Accuracy increased
- Shorter time between bursts and faster cyclic fire rate
Trivia
- Ironically, as with the M392 and M395 DMRs erroneously ejecting the signature shell casings of the Battle Rifle, the BR85N in Halo 5: Guardians now erroneously ejects what appear to be the M118 7.62x51mm shell casings of the DMR.
