How commonly do your players fight enemies with artillery and/or air support?
Considering that artillery is much less common (and air power almost non-existent) in TW unless the PCs are fighting against remnants of military having rifles with some long range accuracy becomes more valuable. Getting close to the enemies has advantages, like throwing a few grenades (IF you don't need to save them up for later...) or making those sniper rifles useless as the assault rifles and SMGs are much more efficient in short range firefights.
Then again if you start the firefight from long range the opponents are likely to fall back and regroup (which might be good if you simply want to avoid battles and plan to be somewhere else before they dare show up again or bad if you had plans to loot their equipment or need to worry about further attacks since they might be back.)
