You wanted this one and you got it, voted the best sniper rifle in gaming history by you on our YouTube page, it’s the SRS99 from the Halo series.

And no, we didn’t put it at number one but we’ll get to that in a bit.

Just because it’s not in the top spot doesn’t mean there’s anything less than awesome about this powerhouse of a weapon, though. Establishing itself firmly in both its iconic and legendary status, the SRS99 is massively powerful but well balanced. It’s not a gun for everybody but those with a penchant for pulling off quick precision shots will quickly become the pariah of every engagement as you zip your way through maps eliminating everyone in sight. The accuracy and speed on this thing is delightful. Coupled with its multiple magnification settings, armour-piercing rounds, and semi-auto capabilities, this is a one-shot-kill death machine that will make your friends hate you.

That said, you’ll be getting so many kills you probably won’t care.
