This glitch is most effective with scoped weapons like the [[SRS99C-S2 AM Sniper Rifle|sniper rifle]] and [[M6D Pistol|pistol]], and is especially useful in multiplayer. After expending a full magazine from a sniper rifle or pistol, the animation is quite long, and in a Team Snipers gametype, the time spent reloading can make a huge difference. Rather than waiting, as soon as the new magazine is in the weapon, the player can press their press melee button/key.

This also works with scope-less weapons, notably the [[ | This also works with scope-less weapons, notably the [[Assault Rifle]], and can be used on [[Covenant]] weapons to reduce the overheat time. For these weapons, either a melee or rapid weapon switch to negate the remaining reload animations/overheat time. The weapon switch or melee must be timed according to when the new magazine first contacts the weapon, or approximately halfway through the overheat period. This might take longer than the regular reload animation rather than part of reload animation ''and'' the melee animation. Keep in mind that if the switch or melee is performed prematurely, the weapon-ready time will increase, or you will completely negate the reload and have to start anew. | ||
