lookin to get a new sniper rifle in the future, iv talked to a couple of you for suggestions, i was lookin to buy an echo 1 m28 and totally upgrade the internals, i know that people have had problems with bad mags and slam firing, the m28 is built solid and with the upgrades iv heard very good things. i just wanted to get any input on the gun, good or bad, and any suggestions for other snipers and upgrades for them, i want a sniper that can hit targets from a decent distance. 250- 275 feet, any and all input is appreciated, thanks

U wanna hit targets at 250 to 275 feet? Mod the hell out of any airsoft gun and this is still a feat. Practice practice practice, although I think u may have unreal expectations. A little airsoft bb can only travel so straight for so long, but I'm the gunner not a marksmen some people here might help you get your expectations more proper for the sport of airsoft.

Its possible but requires a lot of money and modding. You would need to go with a VSR-10 or L96 style rifle because there are so many parts avaliable for them. Then you would need to upgrade basically everything internally (trigger sears, spring, spring guide, piston, cylinder, cylinder head, hop-up bucking, and barrel) Also you would need to know how to do some mods which most have tutorials on youtube. Also after doing all the upgrades you need to use the rifle to get used to how it shoots. At that point the rifle is only as good as the person behind it. So practice a lot with it and know how to accurately estimate distances.

i figured hittin targets from that distance is more the shooter then the gun, bein able to judge bb drop and all that, i kinda got that distance from wantin a gas sniper, my thought was get the power of the gas sniper and the accuracy and consistency of a springer. and i was plannin on doin that to watever gun i got along with addin a barrel extender and a very long inner barrel and a strong piston and piston head to make sure i get enough pressure , i found all those parts from angel custom that are compatable with the vsr-10 and the m28, wat brand l96 rifles are decent, iv looked into them a lil bit but not enough to know, and sorry if there is a crap ton of typos in this i typed it with out my contacts in lol

Just remember most of the automatics can reach just as far...look at Dave's guns.

this is true lol thats why i was thinkin of gettin a gas powered svd or m14 which are semi auto. that makes is a little bit more even match. but gas powered lose accuracy after a couple shots, and i realize i wont need a semi auto as long as i play like a sniper and pick my shots wisely a lighten up on the trigger finger a bit
