A single shot taken with "Take Aim" scores more rep than a single shot taken with regularly. See the reputation chart/guide here:

This is exactly correct.
Also the various shot types selected will also effect the amount of reps earned, AND the amount of attacks you can get in (as damage varies). (again reference the reputation guide link above)
