There are certain times when using a sniper rifle is particulary advantageous in an airsoft game.  The best time to use a sniper is in long games; that is, ones that last many hours or even days, and feature the use of medics and lots of players at once.  While you can technically use a sniper rifle in nearly any situation, the reason it is best to use it here is because you have a wide area to scope out, and the support offered by a sniper can be critical in certain situations.

While some sniper rifles can fire multiple times quickly, many of them can only fire one shot at a time, as they are spring guns.  This means you have to be extremely accurate, and if people are rushing up on you fast, you are basically helpless.  It is critical that you have some kind of sidearm on you, such as an electric pistol or even a full-on airsoft rifle, to prevent you from being taken out in these kinds of situations.
