Unlike what Hollywood and videogames would have you believe, sniping isn't about the gun; it's about the skillset. Getting into a big firefight with a BA is a battle you will lose way more often than not. The sniper role is a game of stealth. Most of the serious players who play sniper roles don't use bolt actions because it has vastly superior range, they use em because they're quiet and because they're consistent from shot to shot (or they should be anyway).

Where airsoft is concerned, DMRs are largely BS. Unlike the real world where you'll have significant differences in energy and ballistics between a 5.56x45 and 7.62x51 round, in airsoft everyone is shooting more or less the same BBs and have the same FPS/energy restrictions.

So really just find a gun you like and work on making it more accurate. (see your other thread on DMRs)
