*After the Hunter encounter on [[The Storm (level)]] where you must face a hammer wielding [[Brute Chieftain]] the room to the far left contains a sniper rifle. Breaking the window will allow you to snipe Covenant forces.

*Because the Sniper Rifle is extremely powerful, but has a small combat load, it is not good practice to use this weapon against weaker enemies (Grunts, Drones). However, the SR's penetration capabilities and superb, long range accuracy make it excellent for killing higher ranking enemies at long range, which, in turn, disorganizes and demoralizes the enemy troops, making combat against a large ground force easier.
