'''11.43mm (.450)''' is a non-standard round occasionally used in the [[SRS99D-S2 AM sniper rifle|Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 AM]]. It is considerably smaller and lighter than the standard 14.5×114mm round, and ostensibly still capable of dealing considerable damage to a target. This round is not the [[Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 AM|SRS-99C S2 AM rifle]]'s default chambering, as the UNSC's standard cartridge for the weapon is [[14.5×114mm]].<ref>'''[[The Art of Halo 3]]''', ''page 57''</ref>
'''.450''' is an ammunition caliber used in the [[Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 AM]]. It is not standard to the series, and is considerably smaller than the standard 14.5mm rounds, but are lighter, and still capable of dealing considerable damage to a target. It was used by [[Linda-058|SPARTAN-058]] (Linda) when [[Blue Team]] captured [[Colonel Robert Watts]].


It was used by [[Linda-058]] when [[Blue Team]] captured [[Colonel Robert Watts]]. Linda apparently converted her rifle with an interchangeable barrel assembly in order to use this cartridge.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 100''</ref>
It is unknown if this round bears any relationship to the .45 round used by some [[Earth]] militaries in the 20th and 21st centuries in weapons such as the Colt M1911 pistol.
This round most likely does not bear any resemblance to the .45 ACP used by [[weapons]] such as the M1911A1. The reason being that the .45 ACP is only 23mm long, and does not contain anywhere near enough powder to propel it to longer distances. The .45 ACP is also rather poor at penetrating 21st century armor.

*This is not the [[sniper rifle]]'s default ammo size. The regular size is 14.5mm, but [[Linda]] converted her sniper with an interchangeable barrel  to use this caliber round.
*".450" means that this bullet is forty-five hundredths of an inch wide. This means it is about 11.43mm.
