Default Snipers Range

Currently in SP all snipers/marksman have a range of 750M. I seem to recall that this was discussed before, but I couldn't find it. Perhaps there was a reason for a lowish standard range for all snipers?

Anyway, recent history has shown that snipers using large cal weapons are consistantly enagaging targets at 1000M. The British army has just announced a massive purchase of rifle/sights which they say have an effective range of 1500M.

There's even a youtube video of a Canadian hitting a guy in Afghanistan at over 2000M. An exception I'm sure.

I know MBT doesn't really model individual weapons, but perhaps snipers should be available (in modern times) that have a greater range than 750M. We could leave 750M to the marksmen.
