Back when my rifle was completely stock I played a game with it with some branches attached to my back because I hadn't made a ghillie yet. I saw a sniper on the other team and. Tried to shoot him but my bb curved to the right just before it made it to him. He saw my bb and found out where I was. He must have bad better accuracy because he shot me and it hit me with range to spare.

Keeping that anecdote in mind think tactics are more important than an upgraded gun. Our concealment and tactics are what make us snipers, not our guns. Our guns are just a very good asset that helps us along with our job of being an airsoft sniper. It is possible to tune a stock rifle to have the performance of a maxed out one with enough time, but a maxed out gun can still be tuned better. You should however still try to get your gun to be as good as possible because it helpsyou be an airsoft sniper.

I went to a game recently and there was this guy who forgot to bring his primary weapon, some L96 clone. He normally plays the role of sniper but recently he has been playing DMR because he runs it at 350fps. Back to forgetting his primary, he never uses a secondary, only a knife. I thought he was the biggest idiot in the workd and he ended up getting about half as many kills with that knife as I did with my bar10. For a ghillie with a knife, that is superbly good, I would never have been able to do that. I don't have any numbers for you, but it was a death match with around 50 or 60 people.

Oh don't get me started on the rambo wannabees.
