Why do you seem to think that shooting someone face-to-face is more respectable than picking them off from a distance? It's not like it will make much difference to the guy that gets shot. If you shoot someone you shoot someone. It doesn't matter how you do it. The point is to kill. The better you achieve that the better you're doing.
A sniper rifle is the ultimate way to kill someone. Nobody can find the shooter because nobody has any idea what is going on until the killer is long gone. He is too far away to see straight away, and even once the shot is made it's still hard to work out where he is.
And beleive it or not Alcar, it takes quite a lot of skill to operate a sniper rifle. You've got to be able to judge distance to within a few meters.
