If you actually intend to play rather than just basement shooting, many people recommend against a sniper rifle for your first gun, especially a Well. They take a lot of time, effort, and money to get shooting to a point where they'll actually have some kind of advantage over a standard assault rifle. Stock, airsoft sniper rifles don't range any further and are only slightly more accurate that normal airsoft guns, with a rate of fire of 1 round every 2 seconds vs. 10 rounds per second. Also, sniping is a very difficult role to play. Most n00bs don't enjoy it and end up getting a bad impression of the game.

Having said that, if you just want the gun to screw around with, a bolt action rifle is a lot of fun.
