M99 AMR Caliber and purpose?
When I was messing around with the reloading animations, I noticed that the M99 AMR has some... rather large bullets. What's it's caliber and what exactly is an M99 used for in real life, since the bullets seem impractically big for single-target use on a person.

Well, real life M99 is chambered for either .50 BMG (12.7x99mm) or .416 Barrett (10.6x83mm). AMR in its name stands for anti-materiel rifle, which means it can penetrate large variety of covers, lightly armored vehicles, and disable certain military equipment. Rifle this powerful will also have higher effective range than that of a standard sniper rifle.
