I managed to master rifleman in a fairly short space of time, I had done it previously, but decided I wanted to do it again. I bought myself some good Kinetic Ubese, only cos it cost less than Composite, and a sliced Laser Rifle. Then I would get a buff, and some entertainer buffs (not always), and use ahrisa and brandy.
I did rifleman as follows;
(Every time I had enough xp to train the Abilities tree, I would)
Novice rifleman
400X
404X
444X (at this point I had enough xp to get 4444)
Master
As soon as I had Head Hit 3, this was all I used to grind.
I'm not saying this is the right way, it worked for me. I went and hunted Sharnaffs, Ravenous Tortons and so on. I had a laugh doing it and probably did it in about just over a week, not playing every day.
Hope this helps

I didn't do any of the suggestions that people are throwing around here.
I got cover shot first, then went about my normal business.
Saw a Stormtrooper patrol, /dismount, /cover, /covershot (till~ 100 ham left on each) then finish them off in one shot walk over collect the loot.
On Lok, see a kimo /dismount, /cover, /covershot (btw ~400 shots to do). walk over harvest the body.
ETC.
had me some fun, and enjoyed every day of the 2 months or so it took, me

just remembered a cool place, get a group together and head to the northwest area of Dathomir, LOADS of rancors about 5k xp each (so 500 cbt xp) night sisters etc. Fun place, kinda reminds of Wales ( mountains, rain, unfriendly natives... )

I just started the Rifleman grind, I've been picking on mostly Quenkers so far. Thanks to 4000 Commando, I'm already at 0003 ... the last box will come soon enough in Abilities. All it took to prompt me to try this was an inability to take on all the Sith in a patrol at once ... so I was using mind bleeds on one to pull it, and discovered that I LIKED sniping at range...

I did that on quenkers till i was 3002 but it got very old very quickly. So i dug around on this board for a lil bit and saw summin called the sennax cave, so i did a search for them and found a WP and went to it, if u stay in the first room with Laser rifle and a Spraystick and go prone so the rock mite things are behind you just kill the ppl and then loot and repeat. i did this untill i was 4243 and got the rest of the xp walking around yavin and dath with my laser rifle. It took me 4 days from when i had 3002 to get to master so it's not that hard if you willing to put in the time. The sennax cave is easy to rack up the xp, dont get a teach untill you buffs run out and you should be able to get 1 or 2 boxes. Also get full buffs including mind buffs and brandy, take some ashria along for when the mind buffs run out, you shouldnt need it otherwise. Good luck with getting rifleman

Can't remember the exact waypoint but it's part of the Hero of tat quest. Also if you do a search on the forums for the sennax cave you will find the waypoint in there.

Allways use speed poweruped and speed sliced weapons.Unless you are at least 0 0 0 3 i doubt you should use any other weapon than a spraystick.

point blank area 1 on huurton stalker lairs using a spd sliced T21. when you atack a lair you have 100% accuracy on all the creatures in range.

actually a e11 is probably best along with the laser rifle
you get the ap bonus plus they are reasonably fast

Get some good armor and go hunt NPC's, Lok is a good place to find alot of them and you dont have to worry about them all running up on you and not being able to hit them.

get that damn speedtree with C12 nades by chucking them at quenker lairs.
Then, take piket longhorn (16/17k)or piket protectors missions (10/12k), go up to the lair and do PointblankArea1 witch a speedsliced T211. Ive done rifles within 2 days, maybe even 1 day, and ive done it about 3 times now.
