A marksman is a person who is skilled in precision shooting. In modern military usage this typically refers to the use of projectile weapons such as an accurized scoped long gun such as designated marksman rifle (or a sniper rifle) to shoot at high-value targets at longer-than-usual ranges.
The proficiency in precision shooting is known as a shooter's marksmanship, which can be used to describe both gunnery and archery.
