If you have a 5000$ rifle and a 200$ scope on it, it does not make sence.
A good rifle should have good glass on it to use it's capability to it's fullest.

In airsoft, that is also true. A well tuned sniper rifle need to have glass that allow the shooter to see clearly beyond 300 feets. That is ridiculous in firearm thermes, but when you consider that most airsoft sniper use cheap reproduction scope that have narrow field of vision, blurry focus at range and a lot of deformation in the image, you understand why good glass is required.

Since a sniper's job is intelligence gathering and long range engaging... it's required to be able to see your target clearly both for detection and identification.
For the shooting part, you still have to be able to track your BB impacts.

I hope that make more sense to you, and others.
