-
Wind-speed, crowd population, angle, degree of obstruction, number of obstacles between yourself and the target, noise levels, and how to adjust any of these variables should the target be moving.
-
Also if there is glass between you and him.
-
Range, wind, day or night, weather, there are many factors, identification of the mark, and most importantly the condition of your gun and optics
-
Rage, elevation distance, wind, rain, heat, obstacles, and shooter faults. The best snipers in the world fire between heartbeats.
-
Indeed. Two more things, however, you must consider the gravity and your current position. High or low? Prone or crouched?
-
All of them. Getting in, getting out. Correct target acquisition, windage, range, physical obstacles such as branches or tall grass, window glass, movements of target, hostage proximity etc. Generally if you can put one in his eye without it hitting anyone else, that's all you have to do. Good luck.

All scientific and technological factors had been said but the most important is are you cold enough to take someone's life once your finger touches the trigger.
-
Wind direction, wind speed, relative motion, breathing, sunlight, and other factors, not to mention the specs on both weapon and ammunition.
-
Weather (Heat COULD effect the trajectory if it's hot enough, as could cold if it's cold enough. Humidity, rain, sleet, hail, etc. might, too.) Wind direction and speed (how much will it effect aim at your distance). Gravity (How far will the slug fall based on distance.) Giving away your position.
-
The size of the target's head

haha that question can b answered by yourself all u need to do is u stick call of duty modern warfare on there is a mission called exactly that and when u take the shot u will see what u need to take into account for ur 2nd attempt coz u sure as hell are going to miss the first attempt :)

Whether or not your particular sniper rifle is legal to own in the state, country, or province in which you intend to fire this round.

There is a good book in publication called the Army Sniper Manual that runs through all the phsysilogical, angle, elevation, cover, obstructions. Its from the 1960s but a great book still.
