Is a sniper rifle better than a shotgun?
Yes because snipers can kill from distances. The shotgun is the close combat weapon because it is only stronger in closer range but the sniper rifle can kill really far away. Snipers are trained to be invisible but not the shotgun. Today most military soldiers are now using the sniper rifle better than the shotgun. Snipers have perfect penatrations of firing against body armors but the shotgun has a poor penatration of firing through the body armor. Snipers are much more better than shotguns because snipers are much more powerful than shotguns and they can kill without being spotted by their enemies. So the sniper rifle is the winner. Actually, it depends on the intended use. The original question was too vague to assume it was meant they way you answered it. At close distances, a shotgun is typically a better choice.
