I would recommand to go straight after countersniping techniques III0\0\3\X,for Flushing Shot 2 that's the style that do the most dmg conebefore you hit master. Then take Accuracy to IV 4\0\3\X, not really going to find any useful styles here since Head Shot 2 is your best single target special for now, but you will need the accuracy. After you get those finish the rest any way you know since you only got defence stuff left and rifleman ain't really know for good denfence.
Good luck and don't freak you when you hit master and use strafe shot 2 for the first time.

Hey. First let me welcome you 
Here's my idea when trying to get up in a profession:
Take skills which will make you kill better. In riflemans case... Speed comes with the abilities tree so you can do other trees and gain speed at the same time.
In the other trees there's also something to make you kill faster. Accuracy. Speed and accuracy are basically the things that make you kill faster. And you get headshot 3... which you should be using headshot 2 to kill critters at this stage.
Take the sniping tree and by the time you get that done, you should have at least abilities II. Then i would go up the counter sniping tree to get the flushing shots etc. Then finish off with concealment.
ALTERNATE:
Get conceal shot.
you can take down any mob in the game with this and a few scout skills.
Just lay prone, and fire away. Loads of xp, but it may take time.
Until you get to about abilities II or III you might want to just use a spraystick killing quenkers on dantooine.
Hope this helps
