''' | '''.450''' is a non-standard ammunition caliber used in the [[Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 AM]]. It 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]]. | ||
This round most likely does not bear any resemblance to the .45 [[Rounds|rounds]] used by 20th and 21st century armies. This is because most .45 rounds in the 21st century are for handguns and thus do not contain enough powder for use as a sniper round. The .45 ACP, a common 21st century round, is poor at penetrating 21st century armor. | |||
== | ==Trivia== | ||
{{ | *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 is about 11.43mm. | |||
