He shoot his arrow faster than he can reload a sniper rifle, and he took down a freaking giant elephant with a freaking bow and arrow! Recoil will just slow him down.
And he mostly have to deal with load of uruks, an assault rifle will be better for him.

What could be shoot that he didn’t already shoot? In the books, he already managed to fell a fell beast from long range. And it’s not like shooting the eye of Sauron with a sniper rifle would kill him.

A sniper file would have stopped the orc that blows up the wall at helms deep.

Yeah but with the higher reload time, he might not have been ready for the first shot.

He did all of that with a bow, imagine him with a sniper rifle…

it would be much harder to stab an orc with an arrow then shoot said arrow if Legolas was armed with a sniper rifle
