As a marksman, you are the mid-range supporting unit for your squad. Your main tasks exist out of spotting enemy hostiles and informing your Squad Leader about possible threats.

You will be equipped with a marksman rifle, accompanied with most likely a higher range scope. The combination of both rifle and scope makes you the ideal candidate to effectively eliminate incoming threats from a distance up to 700m.

Even though the scope can be set to a high range, exceeding the mid-range mark will render your shots significantly less effective. Remember that your role is to provide supporting engagement at mid-range distances.

Ideally, you would have a teammate giving you a range on the incoming enemy forces. While receiving that range or after having calculated the range with your rangefinder, it is essential to increment or decrement your scope's range to fire at the right distance.

This means that you are supposed to move with the squad and provide extended range from within the squad. A marksman is not a sniper/lone gunman supposed to sit far away from the squad, a marksman moves with the squad.
