I just went as my normal MM spec. 1 shot the fight. /shrug
I would highly recommend rapid recup however. This is a very long fight.
What was your guild's strat?
I havn't really attempted this on 25-man much, but my 10-man group had barely wiped at all on any of the ToC content until we got to this one... We put in maybe 10-12 attempts and didn't come particularly close to winning.
We had the Shadow Priest, Ret, Warrior, Lock, Resto Shaman, and Resto Druid.
Burning the healers got us the closest of any strat that we tried. We managed to get both healers down on two different occasions, but half the raid was dead by that point each time.
We tried CCing healers and burning their DPS a few times, but struggled to even get 1 down using that method. Once the healers become basically immune to CC, the fight is over. Those HoTs roll for ridiculous amounts per tick...

I haven't done it on 25man just 10man - and it was is a horrible learning curve to go pve->pvp ...
Mileage will vary, but our strat was burn shaman from the start then hunter and mage .. the pallys heals werent a major issue like the shaman, the warrior and dk dps wasnt a major issue either ... It was the shaman's heals, and mage / hunters blowing people up ...
It took us some 10attempts, but once those 3 were down, the fight was over ...

We had alot more trouble with the resto druid than the shaman. Lock fears are a major pain too.

I think part of our problem was that we were lacking both mass-dispel and heroism. We had alot of redundant classes with multiple pallies, druids, and hunters. We also had one DPSer that was less than ideal... which is a much bigger deal in 10-man where that's 20% of your DPS (not counting the tanks).
We may actually have to be choosy this week instead of just letting in top rolls.

Don't change your spec for this fight. Hunter isn't a good CC class, go there to hurt them.
My guild kill order was:
Resto Shaman
Holy Priest
Pets
Warrior
Hunter
Holy Paladin
Shadow Priest
Warlock
Mage
DK
Rogue
We used BL right at start to burn the healers. I would try to shoot Tranq Shot before any Steady Shot (steady is my Q, Tranq Shot is my Shift Q), so remove renews, BL or Earth Shield of the target. I also removed my Aimed Shot + Silencing Shot macro, so that I could try interrupt some spells that the target would cast.
Used Frost Trap on CD. Freezing Trap is unreliable, even with trap shooting. Plus, the area slow helped the people that were kitting a lot.
Don't use Snake trap, they DoT random targets and end up breaking CCs.

This was a whole lot easier in my 10-man last night with better group composition. 1-shot it after wiping about 10 times last week.
There's definitely no reason to use an alternate spec or PVP gear etc. The only change i might recommend (and i think KR already mentioned this) is to go for more replenishment.
But basically all a hunter needs to do here is burn the kill target as fast as possible while throwing out some frost/freezing traps and tranq shots.
And this is a bit OT, but Twin Valkyries is a joke.
