The abilities of each as shooters depends on the individual... whichever one is a better shot is going to be the better shot, no matter what branch they're in.
As for Special Forces and Marine Scout Snipers, they're trained in rather different roles. A Marine Scout Sniper would not be trained in everything a Green Beret would be trained in, nor would a Green Beret have the same priorities in training as a Marine Scout Sniper.

How is it like in special forces training?
Depending on what special force you want to join, the training will always be very different because they all specialize in different ways of fighting.Keep in mind that any special force will all push you to and beyond your physical limits, as well as your mental limits.I'll add info about Marine force recon because I have prior experience with them. (I'm a SEAL now, but it's basically the same as far a physically)Marine Force ReconWhen you get out of boot camp all recruits have a chance at attendingthe Basic Reconnaissance Course (BRC).To pass this course, you must first pass physical screening so that you won'thave any medical problems throughout the course.You must pass Combat Water Survival courses 3-1, this is what most people have a problem with due to highly stressful situations while being in open water usually in full combat gear (fight or flight test being the hardest of all).I've always been a great swimmer because I grew up on the river and close to the ocean, I have to tell you though, it was really hard. They nearly drown you many times in order to see how you will react (many do drown and have to be revived immediately).Running, that's our religion. You have to be able to atleast run 6 miles before you go (we ran 10mi once), as well as ruck (aka hump, march) 80lbs 20 miles up a mountain. The 'funnest' (if you describe pain as fun as most special operatives) part of training was "engine appreciation day" in which you have to run your Coxswain rubber raiding craft 2 miles, paddle pass the surf and paddle another mile and a half, flip you boat, paddle back. 5 laps of this.The funnest part is the HAHO/HALO (High altitude High open/High altitude low open) parachute qualifications where you get to jump at 30k with full combat gear (it takes long practice hours in the wind tunnel before attempting this).There's plenty of SpecOp forces out there tho, feel free to add whatever experiences you've had in any of these to give people a better feel:Para rescuer, Green Beret, Ranger, SEAL, Navy EOD, etc
What is better to join the military for US Army Airborne or Marine Corps Scout Sniper?
It all depends on what you want to get out of it.It depends on what you're more interested in. Marine scout sniper would definitely be harder, because it's more centralized in one job. With airborne you'd only have basics and then a 3-week airborne course. That's about it. You could also get into an air assault course, but it's not really difficult or necessary even to get the patch. It's all on your personal preference. Either way, good luck. Hope i helped a little bit. If you're looking into scout sniper look up the show "surviving the cut." it has full episodes on youtube and shows the training you'll go through. Marine sniper is one specific episode.

Both Navy Seals and US Marine Force Recon are effective fighting forces, but they have different missions. Seals operate on a very small- unit individual mission basis, as their killing of Osama bin Laden demonstrated, while Marine Recon will scout a battlefield and destroy any key defenses prior to a Marine assault. Neither is 'better'; both are incredibly effective at what they do.
