Whenever I play Truth and Reconciliation I start out with 64 sniper bullets. Does that happen to anyone else? Is it because I used the rifle in campaign so much Bungie is rewarding me? What do you guys think?

it simply starts you off with that many rounds. it's not a glitch, it's not a reward. I guess you can consider it the sniper level. notice you can't pick up extra ammo until you find yourself under 24 rounds.

want infinate sniper ammo w/out modding?

when you're about to reload the sniper, stand over a weapon you can switch for it, press x to reload and right as the ammo clip is completely out of the sniper rifle quickly switch for the other weapon, if done correctly, the clip you just had will have reloaded and you wouldn't have lost any ammo reloading but actually gained an ammo clip (it also works on the rocket, assault rifle, needler, and pistol)

1. make sure you have ammo remaining to reload
2.stand over other weapon
3.press X 3 times (third time holding down to switch)
4.wait for weapon to completely reload (let the reload sound finish)
5. pick up full weapon

That's the way it's supposed to start off.

It is a special part of the level. It starts you off with extra ammo, because youll need it. Ive gone an enitre level of this and still had ammo in my rifle.

Hey, I tried this, but what does it do? A free reload, or infinite ammo?

just a free reload.......but i guess it would give you infinate ammo if you kept using it over and over every time you reloaded
