At a theoretical level, IIRC, due to things like finer motor skills and tendency to notice different colors and patterns. In reality, I’m not sure how well the idea holds up.

"Women make better natural snipers than men...."
No they don't. Women can be extraordinary marksmen but sniping is only 10% shooting and 90% fieldcraft. Men have a natural affinity for crawling a mile on their belly through the mud and then lying in their own body waste for three days while waiting for the target to appear. Most women are repulsed by the very idea. A woman might do it if she's pressed to it but guys will do all day every day and twice on Sundays it just to prove they who's toughest.

“Women make better natural snipers than men. Better watch yer @$$.”

You are very correct on that. Out of all the people I have instructed out on the range, women by nature are better shots overall. In my experiance with men, the ego and competativeness always came out, when a shot missed the paper and you point out why, it seemed to fall on deaf ears. Women on the other hand were more willing to take instruction after hitting or missing the paper. I would put $100 dollars on a woman bieng closer to the bullseye than a guy at 50 yards open sights, under the circumstances that both people having no experiance with firearms, 2 rounds each. Hell I would give 10:1 odds on that.
