[edit] Two sniper rifle pages.

There is significant overlap between this page and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Sniper_rifles. The two pages should probably be combined.

The McMillan TAC-50 is on both the "regular" sniper list and the large caliber section. Only one has the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McMillan_TAC-50 link.

[edit] Tactical Ops?

Is there a reason for the Tango 51 linking to the video game Tactical Ops?
