Hi guys,
As the title says, i am new to the airsoft sniper role, and im looking for some advice for the two sniper rifles i have in my arsenal.

Firstly, my latest purchase.. a second hand WELL MB4414D.
this sniper works well enough as is, but is shooting AEG level of performance.

I found an upgraded trigger group and piston/cylinder/spring set from an airsoft store in romania (not an airsoft pro one, as i cannot find one in stock anywhere). I have no idea how to take the rifle apart (other than seperating the upper from the stock) and dont really want to start taking it apart in case i damage something inadvertantly. If anyone has a copy of the manual, or a video guide i can watch to help me, i would greatly appreciate it.

Once upgraded, what weight bbs should i be looking to use? I currently have .32 Valkyrie BBs in my other sniper that i use on occasion, but should i look at heavier?

Finally, my other sniper rifle, an ARES WA2000 (which i have owned from new), what upgrade parts are available, and which ones should i prioritise to make the rifle perform better?

i have some maple leaf autobot hop buckings at home, will these fit either the WELL, OR the WA2000? or do i need a different bucking?

Thank you in advance,and apologies if these are all noob questions, but im still fairly new to airsoft in general, having only started in the sport january last year

I don't know about your bucking problem, but I suggest you get rid of both of those rifles. Well rifles have a tendency to be finicky to the point of unreliablity, and ARES is just plain out a bad brand. ARES tries to convince you that you are getting something good and high quality, when all the send you is a piece of garbage. If you want a lower budget rifle I suggest going with the BBTac M61 or the BBTac M62. If you are willing to spend a little more, I suggest going with one of the Novritsch rifles. I do not own any Novritsch rifles, but I have heard that they are the best of the best. If you want a rifle somewhere inbetween the BBTacs or Novritschs, you might consider looking at the VSR. All of these mentioned rifles are of extreme quality and would work well for you I think.

I second Tactical, I suggest the SSG10, Action Army T11, APS Fieldcraft, and the classic upgrade a Tokyo Marui VSR-10, JG BAR-10, or the CYMA CM701.
The upgrading a standard VSR isn't a good idea as not many of the parts are all that great so you will spend at least $500+ replacing them, which is what makes the T11 and SSG10 so good, most of the parts are already as good as most upgrade products.

We need someone who has been on here for a while to do a review of the BBTac products. They are not well known at all but Tactical Marksman seems to like them. (Sorry, Tactical, I think someone else more experienced should do the review because they will be able to see what is compatible and what is not. They will also be able to compare the quality with other rifles)
It could possibly be a real winner (or not) for those on a budget.

I can pick one up on my next paycheck. Which do you want a review on? the 62 or 61?

 

[1tonne]

Not sure. I guess Tactical Marksman would know which of the 2 are better to review.

Maybe the 61 as it is VSR compatible. But it was the 62 that managed to get 650fps and if it is shooting that, then we are onto a possible winner.

No I get it. I wouldn't call myself a professional. I just talk what I feel about products with honesty. I appreciate that you were honest with your feelings. I like people like that.

They are both good. I like them both. I have had good experience with both of these, but I am intrested to see what you think.

And sorry it was the M61 I got 650 with.
