Snipers have always been one of the strongest 'equalizers' in any battle. Our very liberty can be largely thanked to the likes of the Pennsylvania Riflemen, our nations founding snipers, who were reported to have made one ship kills as far as a quarter mile with rifled flintlock rifles. Sargent York was also considered a sniper for the way he worked. I think those with hunting backgrounds typically have the skill to cleaning take out the true enemy (instead of large numbers of innocent by standers as which gets killed during too many battles), with the fewest number of shots.
There are some shooters out there. I revere the sniper.
