Some of you seem to have zero experience shooting an airsoft gun.
Since they copy the real thing, they will have sighting systems set for the real caliber of the gun.
Usually, those are ranges that are calculated in hundreds of meters and the sights set accordingly.
In airsoft, with it's totally different ranges and projectile behaviour, the sights (as said) are pretty much a pointing aid.
Most scopes are magnified, and calibrated for real ammunition. That causes several problems in aiming and adjusting them.
Solution? Set the iron sights to the shortest range. Adjust the hopup properly (it will matter far more than the sights). And if you really want a scope just remember that either the red-dot aimpoint types work best, OR that scopes with magnification become a convenient tool to spot the opponents. They are less effective for truly accurate aiming.
Yes, there are cases where this is not true, but by the point when you have reached that kind of level of experience you've done tons of research and compensated for the drawbacks.
The closest real gun method is to use shotgun patterning techniques.
