Seeing as how you are in Cornwall, means you'll more than likely be attending Ottawa/Petawawa/Quebec games, and that pretty much means you'll have to have sub-450fps as a velocity (regardless of the certification level, even I have to abide by this, but I have only been running my BA at just under 400fps.....that's 0.36g coming out at 300fps) and find it works much better than it was at 500fps for a few years (also gives me a much lower MED, I'll shoot guys at 60ft if I can tag a pouch or something), and sniper clinic isn't necessary (is more for new players to learn techniques and safety). Sounds like you have plenty of experience under your belt, all you need now is just to get a rifle and get out to games with it.
Something you can do, which is what I do constantly, haul your rifle on your back and play with your AEG full time. Bring out the rifle when you need the quiet accuracy, or get the sweet shots you can get away with. My rifle is on my back 90% of the game, yes I lug a lot of weight, but is worth it. And being a sniper doesn't always mean camping, hunting/stalking is much more productive, work alone or with a spotter away or ahead of your team, and work in concert with them (comms are mandatory).
I say, just get out and do it.
