It gives more accuracy to the shooter due to its length. Rifles have a stock to help aiming better (faster and more accurate) and their firing range is even longer than SMGs, shotguns, and handguns' range is. There's the fact too that their caliber and the projectile launch by them can penetrate more easily some shelter and bulletproof suits.
