Master cheif shield should be strong enough to block/absord the blaster rifle. He has his secondary shield shield under his accessory as well he can use at will.
Is that where everyones getting these crazy feats from, the books?
Master Chief in vs threads always comes off sounding more like Sam Gideon, if all you're going on is the games..

Well, in Tales of the Bounty Hunters, in the pit of sarlacc, he survived blasting himself out with a thermal detonator.
And Han Solo's blaster couldn't penetrate his armor.

Chief encounters mainly energy weapons in all of his fights with the covenant. Between his Armour, personal shield and hard light barrier this its more then enough to block/absorb a blaster rifle.
Hans Solo may not have been able to penetrate him,cbut a spartan laser is no joke, it can take down even some of the mightiest Armour and ships from the covenant. On a personal target it's game over for who ever is on the other end.
Cheif has also survived falls from inner atmosphere at terminal velocity when hitting the grownd and woke up picked his rifle up and started fighting again like nothing happened.
55 is inaccurate. In Fall of Reach, the number is closer to five or six.

In Fall of Reach the Spartans reaction time was recorded at 20 milliseconds
Humans react anywhere between 200-215 millseconds making a Spartan without armor's reaction time 10-11 times faster
The suit than amplifies the reaction time by five. Making it between 50-55
On top of that the augmentations only get better as the Spartans adjust to them
On top of that reaction is further augmented with AI assistance

Page 57 of Fall of Reach states that without their armor, a Spartan's reflexes are "300% faster than a regular human beings".
It's stated that the arrmor and AI increases the user's reflexes, but a concrete number is never actually given.
Provide your source for the 20 millisecond reaction time. It isn't in First Strike or Fall of Reach.
