I presume you mean the American sniper, Private Daniel Jackson.
In addition to making certain his rifle is ready to make an accurate shot, he quotes Psalms. Sometimes he also kisses a crucifix.

In which war is the film saving private Ryan set?
Stephen Ambose wrote the book "A Band of Brothers" which is a historical docmentary the tells the about what happened to a small company in an Airborne regiment. Tom Hanks made this into a TV series. In the book it mentions that one paratrooper had lost two brothers so the Army ordered him back home since he was the sole-surviving heir. Tom Hanks and Spielberg discussed this bit of history and imagined how difficult it would be to locate a paratrooper who could have landed anywhere on the entire Normandy area. Even though the real incident did not require a search team, they formed a story around a team that was sent to locate the one paratrooper. They filled in the story to include details of the characters and based it on totally fictious people. Added August 2011: Whilst some of the above is correct, in fact Saving Private Ryan came before band of Brothers and it was during the filming of Saving Private Ryan that hanks and Spielberg discovered they were both interested in a TV series based on the days after the DDay landings, they decided to collaborate on Band of Brothers as Hanks already had the rights to the book. Saving Private Ryan is a totally fictional story written specially for the film BUT there was in fact some inspiration and this is where the story gets complicated: The Niland brothers are said to have been the inspiration as many of them died during WW2 and 2 are burried in the same cemetary that we see in Saving Private Ryan; side by side above Gold Beach. Then there are the Sullivan brothers all 5 of whom were killed when their boat was torpedoed (one is said to have survived the sinking but was killed in a shark attack shortly after).

How heavy is a 50 caliber sniper rifle?
12 - 15 lbs Actually, modern-day .50 caliber sniper rifles are considerably heavier than the above quote (the above weight is typical for a 7.62mm or equivalent sniper rifle). The "prototypical" 0.50 cal sniper rifle is the US's M82, made by Beretta. It weighs anywhere from 25 to 35 lbs, depending on model and attachments. Remember that a .50 cal (or 12.5mm) sniper cartridge is almost three times the volume, and five times the weight, as a 7.62mm cartridge, which means the rest of the rifle must be very significantly beefier than a 7.62mm rifle.
