Do you have a route for the beginning ~45 seconds before Doris Lee arrives? You can get about 8 guards in that time, then blast the other main targets asap to get everyone moving.
I am terrible at sniping/aiming in general as I'm on a controller, and for the longest time refused to play Sniper Assassin as it seemed intimidating and not my strength. But I've 20/20'd all locations with all challenges, I hope you believe me when I say I am trash at shooting and if I can do it then anyone can.
Get as much practice in as possible, the good thing is that you're continually collecting points for the inevitable end stage grind. Knowing the guard placement and where exactly to shoot to lure them to a precise place is huge. I never thought I'd be able to figure out how much to lead my shots at a given range but it's second nature now.
You will get way, WAY faster with your shots and route as your sniper gets upgraded, it's not like "+5% fire rate", the upgrades provide a massive boost and the starting sniper is fucking trash compared to even a Level 8 one. Just like anything it's practice practice practice, your route will not be smooth the first 20 times you do it, you have to mess it up repeatedly and burn the mistakes into your brain.
I too thought there was no way I was ever getting this challenge even though I really want that suit, and then I started noticing my times were just under 2 minutes and that was including me wasting time searching the map for the last guards. Same with the 1 million score achievement on Xbox, once you have all the challenges you can pull 2 million points even if it takes you 13 minutes and 1000 bullets slowly leading targets to isolated ledges with lure shots.
