M6H magnum/Gameplay

Campaign and Spartan Ops

 * Like other M6 models the M6H is very good at taking down unshielded enemies with a headshot.

Multiplayer

 * The M6H is a six shot kill with good accuracy and a decent rate of fire and range making it the ideal sidearm for multiplayer.

Campaign

 * All members of Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris, with the exception of Olympia Vale, spawn with an M6H2.

Multiplayer

 * The M6H2 is a five shot kill and has consistently high accuracy, allowing two kills per full magazine. Though its fire rate is slow compared to the M6H, it proves a generally more reliable weapon than most previous incarnations of the weapon.
 * Unlike the M6H, the M6H2 lacks a KFA-2 x2 making the player rely on Smart scope. With only 1.5x zoom players should not attempt to take down enemies wielding weapons like the BR85 battle rifle or M395 DMR at long range.
 * Although many players tend to use it as a primary weapon instead of the MA5D assault rifle due to its headshot capability, the M6H2 performs poorly in close quarters due to its slow fire rate and low aim assist. It is instead recommended for mid-range usage.
 * Warzone features the Extended Magazine variant, which increases the magazine size to 24 rounds and increases reserve accordingly; the Gunfighter varient, which removes the smart-scope feature and features a faster fire rate with a lower range; and the Tactical variant (effectively the SOCOM variant of the H2) that features a silencer, 2× smart-scope, and match-grade armor piercing ammunition.
