FTW's waffle-free edges:

Short: The M6D has much more stopping power and a few extra rounds. Spartans have also pulled off some pretty far range shots with it.

Edge: Master Chief

Mid: The M90 has some pretty unreal stopping power. Along with its extra ammo capacity, it comfortably outclasses the Winchester.

Edge: Master Chief

Long: The MA5B has more stopping power and twice the ammo as the AR-18, which is why Chief's other two weapons trumped the Terminator's. But since these are long range weapons, the AR-18, having significantly superior range, is a much better long range rifle. The MA5B is more submachine-gun like for me.

Edge: Even (leaning towards Terminator)

X-Factors: I believe Chief's tactical mind is a big advantage here. He has increased intelligence, memory, creativity, etc. and it's going to be helpful in formulating a strategy to take down the Terminator. He's taken down countless Promethean knights, who heavily outclass the Terminator. Chief without his suit also has some pretty impressive strength and speed feats, he killed and wounded multiple fully armored elite soldiers with his bare hands at the age of 14. In his armor his strength and speed are increased, he can hit speeds of 70 km/h (at the risk of damaging himself), and can go 55 km/h in short bursts. He can lift and throw a fully loaded Warthog (not just in the games) and has increased senses. Terminator's superior strength won't be much of an advantage here, if it came to a fist fight Chief is skilled enough to give the Terminator a few (or probably a lot of) good hits, plus his armor will hold up for most of it. Terminator's greatest advantage really is his titanium endoskeleton. Chief has dented titanium with his fists though, and his bullets can dent advanced Covenant and even Forerunner metals. I think Chief wins this after a quick, but extremely intense battle.
