The only other sorts of long range weaponry would be darts, throwing spears, and rope based things like bolas. Then you would have your large scale weaponry like ballistas, catapults and trebuchets. Notice that the title of "marksman" does not apply to ANY users of these sort of wepaons.
It could be argued that darts are used in a way like guns are now, but none of the others fit the bill (aside from the large ones which have modern equivalents in military weaponry like tanks and such).
