text: There is so much more to be a true sniper. It's not just hitting a target at range. 90% of a snipers job is gathering Intel through observation of enemy forces the shot is only taken when a high value target presents itself and is stationery. The main job is to assess the manpower,arms,supply train and find out the chain of command. All of this is done through observation and having the training to know what to look for. Taking a shot is only done when a high value target is detected and is on the high value target list. The sniper is also used as psychological warfare at times. One sniper can keep an entire company on edge for 72hrs and if he is good enough he can keep them fairly well contained for a good period of time. Snipers do not just go and indiscriminately shoot people. I can't teach this on here it is a very complicated and hard course to teach. Most people just don't have the drive and commitment to actually learn
