Great perspective.

My thoughts, and i'm not a gun person by any stretch.

Given the picture below 100m is both;
1. a difficult shot when you factor in movement/cover/poor light (un-aimed fire with SMG or Assult rifle)

2. a somewhat easier shot when you take the time to aim and have a scope (aimed shot with a sniper rifle)

But the 100m thing is important. Yes, its a long way. Also consider how difficult it is to spot a target 100m away - not only are they 100m away but they are in a huge area (human eye has a 35 degree of view or something?), and if you do see someone, you still need to identify it. Lots to consider.
