I run with my sniper quite a bit, but more like Cyclops does. Sitting and waiting,choosing which targets to shoot and which to let go, and then having EVERYBODY on the opposing team gunning for you as soon as you fire off a shot, can get pretty lame. I carry my sniper riffle ( heavily upgraded bar10), have my sidearm (upgraded We xdm) or dual mac11a1's, AND my vfc mp5 strapped to my back. It's an expensive kit,but gives me the ability to do whatever the game situation calls for.
As for the L96, or Bar10 question, it's personal preference. I prefer the bar 10, as I like the vsr platform. Parts seem to be more readily available, and affordable. The gun is more comfortable, and lighter. And I feel the L96 is ugly as he'll!!!
But beware these critters take time and money (lots of it) to get correct. And they are rather problematic,so endless you have lots of time, money, and patience, I agree with others as to getting a "Good" DMR. The G&G M14 long version, the TM m14, a quality sr25, are all good choices.
Sniping can be a ton of fun, but it's not for the impatient, or for somebody on a tight budget.
Joke em' if they can't take a shazaam!
