==Overview==
===Design details===
{{Main|SRS99 series}}
The SRS99-S7 AM is a semi-automatic, gas-operated [[sniper rifle]] that fires [[14.5×114mm]] rounds. The mounted optic is capable of 5× and 10× magnification.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} In appearance, the SRS99-S7 AM bears great similarity to the [[SRS99-S5 AM sniper rifle]], with the scope being similar to the one used by the [[SRS99-AM sniper rifle]]. The weapon's exterior has a Code 128 barcode, which when scanned translates to S7 Sniper.{{Ref/Game|Id=model|HI|In-game weapon model}}

===Usage===
The S7 is considered the culmination of decades of development and field testing during the Insurrection and Covenant war; subsequently, it was prioritized for integration into the UNSC ''Infinity''{{'}}s armament as the standard sniper rifle solution for all active deployments.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} It was in service during the [[Requiem Campaign]] of [[2558]]{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Vertical Umbrage|Detail=A customised SRS99-S7, [[Abbey Lime]], is used by Spartan Kovan during the story.}} and by [[2560]], the S7 was employed by UNSC armed forces personnel during the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]].{{Ref/Game|Id=gameplay|HI|gameplay}}

===Variants===
*'''[[S7 Flexfire Sniper]]''': An experimental and modified variant of the sniper rifle that has an increased rate of fire, a larger magazine size of 10, and greatly increased ammo reserve. However this variant is not pinpoint accurate, deals lower damage, and only has one zoom setting, making it ineffective at long ranges.{{Ref/Game|HINF|Forge - S7 Flexfire Sniper description|Quote=Experimental high-capacity S7 Sniper rifle, designed for a focus on mid-range encounters.}}
*'''[[Abbey Lime]]''': A customised S7 used by [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan]] [[Nina Kovan]].
*'''[[Nornfang]]''': A customized S7 used by [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[Linda-058]].

{{Article quote|The S7 Sniper is a long-range precision rifle with two zoom distances. Headshots kill most targets instantly.|Description from the Academy's Weapon Drills menu.{{Ref/Game|HI|Weapon customization|Weapons Bench description}}{{Ref/Game|HI|Academy - Weapon Drills - S7 Sniper description}}}}
The Sniper Rifle is a [[Precision weapon|precision]] [[power weapon]], which fires highly damaging projectiles at near instantaneous speeds. It features two levels of zoom, and a magazine of 4 rounds. This makes it a powerhouse at long ranges, capable of killing most enemies, including enemy players in multiplayer, with one headshot or two bodyshots (1 to break shields and 1 unshielded bodyshot), and outranging other weapons like the [[Battle Rifle]] significantly. To compensate for its power, it is a relatively rare weapon, and ammo for it is difficult to find.
