I'd ascribe various positive effects to video games, but hand-to-eye coordination with a rifle or other ranged weapon is quite a different thing to the hand-to-eye coordination required to use your mouse and move the crosshair on an enemy's head.

Very true, not very many people aim down the barrel of a rifle with both eyes open for starters so you have to factor in eye dominance. Then there is the added factor of the weight of the gun and how steady the gun is in your hands (assuming you are holding the run and not using a stand or rest). Finally (not really but as much as i want to go into it) is the psyche of pulling the trigger; most people tend to pull the gun just before firing in anticipation of the shot. It takes a lot of practice to be a good marksman.
