 well on a few I disagree with you.
 scout sniper I go Caldari.
 highest scout sr damage mods ability, good mobility, avg sidearm, naturally damped to stay hidden.
 
 assault sniper caldari again.
 faster reload, avg mobility, good sidearm with the mag sec, highest sr damage mods ability
 
 best heavy sniper is amarr.
 highest ehp,
 logi is amarr due to a big adv of having a sidearm.
 
 
 to me the best overall is the caldari commando.
 damage bonus & faster reload, high damage mods, high ehp, and another light weapon to defend yourself,

 with my caldari commando, 3 damage mods, max prof and a charge sr then I headshot mean you means if don't stack shield with amarr or gal sent I can and will OHK you.

 For standard snipers, its really preference related. Some prefer scouts for the lower profile and higher speed, others prefer sentinel for their difficulty in being countersniped.
 
 lol that is not the damage bonus. with the cald commonado 3 complex damage mods your bonus damage (not counting max prof)
 you get a boost of 27.07 damage. the fitting bit is wrong fyi.
