The DMR is also a 5-shot kill weapon in Halo 4, and it contains 14 shots per clip. The weapon uses bloom once again, albeit differently than it was in Reach due to a higher reset speed. The DMR is more useful at long-very long ranges, filling the niche between the Sniper Rifle and BR.
5 shot kills? From the Battle Rifle? Are these people serious? I'm starting to believe that nobody at 343 has any design ability at all.
