4 shots to the head with the human sniper rifle is more than enough to kill someone but for some reason he doesnt die.....i.e. hes cheatingThis does not necessarily mean that he is cheating because there are various issues regarding this situation. As for problems where you visually see your sniper rifle shot go through your opponent, this is what Achronos had to say...

Uh, that means that your client thought you hit the guy, but the host didn't. Remember, saved films are from the perspective of the box that recorded them. If you weren't the host, then it is possible that the guy won't die if you're experiencing some lag. The Halo 3 sniper rifle is not as forgiving as the Halo 2 rifle. In Halo 2, the client had an advantage over the host because the client could miss (based on the host's world view) yet still get credit for a hit. In Halo 3, this doesn't work anymore. With the addition of saved films, this means you can pretty much see all the times you and the host don't agree.Hopefully reading what was stated above helps you better understand what exactly may be going on and why you have been experiencing those occurrences.
