Why an elven ranger rather than an elven fighter? The fighter will be a significantly better archer as he will be able to put a third star in bows, and will level faster (so he'll always have better to hit rolls). The ranger does have some advantages over the fighter, but bowmanship is not one of them. [/QUOTE]By pure D&D rules, elves get bonuses to hit and damage when using long swords and long bows. Its just what they are proficient with, as a race.
