The '''.450''' cartridge is a non-standard round that was occasionally used in the [[Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 AM]]. It is considerably smaller and lighter than the standard 14.5x114mm round, and ostensibly 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]].

*".450" means that this bullet is forty-five hundredths of an inch wide. This is about 11.43mm.

*It should be noted that there was an old .45-caliber ''rifle'' cartridge the: [[wikipedia:.45-70|.45-70 Government cartridge]] (colloquially referred to as: ".45 Government"), so a .45-caliber rifle cartridge isn't entirely out of the question. Whether or not such a cartridge would perform effectively when used with the SRS-99C S2 AM is another matter.
