Ok guys..
I'm not sure how well this works at very low levels, but I am at speed box III and about II on all other skills. I just descovered this: Go to Dant, get in a solo-group, get hurton stalker missions.
Then, use marksman Point Blank Area 1 on the LAIR.
You will be able to kill about 20 hurtons for 4.5k XP in about 3 minutes.
Be sure you have good buffs and armor!
This is an AMAZING trick.

hehe yeah I use this one too. It speeds up the grind a good bit this is my 4th time grinding rifleman the 2nd time using this method.

oh yeah, forgot to mention... i used it from novice marksman all the way up to 3004rifles so far.
i just sat in the middle of a meatlump spawn and looted them as fast as I could up until 3000 marksman then I headed to dant, works like a charm for me

Best choice is an unwanted krayted T21 that got a speed slice. Useless to master riflemen. You get heavy AP, damage and extra speed. If you ADK it, it will last you for the whole grind, then you can destroy it when the grind is done and get the ADK back for your damage-dealing T21.
I also did my rifleman grind this way, but mine was on sharnaffs. It's expensive on the armor but it works well to master rifles quickly.

Used a similar method to master - exept i found there are so many wild spawns out in Dant that I just wanders round kill Quenker, Huurton and Piket lairs.... saved travellign back to a Mission Terminal every few mintutes and the wild lairs tend to spawn quite a few MOBs to.
Mastered from scratch in about 3 days

try this, buffed and armoured ( and skanked up on brandy) head to dathomir, run across it to the village, kill everything in your path and make detours toward rancors ( 6 shots and down = 5k xp), by the time you get there you will be out of buffs and maxed rifles xp, trust me
It has the advantage of the fact that you shoot different stuff all the time so it dosn't feel like grinding, its fun if you harvets and the spawn is good, you can also pick up about 3-10k of meat hide or bone.

Just an obeservaton, people who take the time to learn a proffession, and down't quick grind it, tend to be MUCH better at it than people who spam /poinblankarea1 for it. (yes I have done that, but it was the third time i had mastered rifleman)

I spent 4 months doing rifles to get master, i used to crawl across dathomir and shoot the rancors when I hit master I started trying all thes tricks that everyone says gets the skills quickest - and I get bored, the only way I like playing is to take my time doing a profession. So I started bounty hunter, took me a week to get investigate III, evidently people can do it in a day, but I have fun doing it, this rate I figure I should be ready to buy some bh weapon skill boxes by the time the CU comes around.
And I agree with the more time you spend learning your proffesion, the better you are at it.
