28 Weeks Later has this plot element.

Military sniper instructed to take out the fleeing citizens right as they recognize the outbreak. Ends up abandoning his post and ultimately sacrificing himself to save the protagonists.

Unlikely this is what you are looking for, since surely you would have recalled it was a zombie film, just pointing it out.

Good movie, but alas, I would have remembered the zombies.

I'm so sick of not knowing what this movie is that I'm resigning myself to the likely fact that this was in some dream the OP had recently.

But I'm coming back to this thread b/c I'm now interested in whatever BrownShoes posts next

There was a kind of nerdy looking sniper in the Bourne movies.

edit: oh, already mentioned.
