I had a rather unpopular debate with the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education (TCLEOSE) a few years ago as to the non-difference between "sniper" rifles and "precision" rifles. I recommended that they call duck a duck and was met with the typical PC response that the LEO experts preferred to call the firearms in question "precision" rifles.
