Hathcock used?

Although White Feather did use the 50 BMG a few times, his issued sniper
rifle was a Winchester standard bolt action hunting rifle in 308, his
partner carried the M14 for close in (under 600 yds) protection of the team.

His WInchester is in the Marine Museum

I think that you're thinking of Lake Champlain in Vermont. It's not as
risky as it sounds, the other side of the lake has only strip malls with reb
shoppers in them.

From 1911 to 1959, the issued sniper rifle was the 1911 A3 bolt action,
in 30/06, then the government got smart, because hunting rifles were
better for the job

Wrong!
The 1911 is a handgun, a semi-automatic pistol chambered for the .45 ACP
cartridge. The Model 1903 was a bolt-action rifle and after 1906 it was
chambered for the .30-06 cartridge. However, the most common type of rifle
carried by U.S. troops in The War to End All Wars (That's WWI) was the M-1917
rifle, also chambered in .30-06 and also available in a "sniper" variant.
During WWII, some 1903 sniper rifles were used, but so was a sniper variation
of the M-1 Garand.

Only deer hunters need, and most have, sniper rifles

An average deer hunter's rifle "was" the favorite sniper rifle , and was
issued to snipers from 1960 to 1987. It was just a standard Winchester
bolt action with scope, in 308 caliber, it was/is quite capable of
killing humans out to 800 yds.

From 1911 to 1959, the issued sniper rifle was the 1911 A3 bolt action,
in 30/06, then the government got smart, because hunting rifles were
