Step 1: Ghille suit

you dont really need a ghille suit to be a good sniper but it helps you to blend in with the eviroment around you. they are not to excpencive around £80 up to £200

i dont think a full face mask sniping is a great idea

Personal experiences as an airsoft sniper: Just carry an extra mag (My rifle holds 20 rounds), and you should be fine. I have a lightweight spring pistol as a backup (Stinger P9). It has a bb well in the back, so with 100 rounds it's a very nice back up. Cheap, too. I like the review by the way.

At least you know what your on about, half the people on instructables seem to think that a .20g bb with a muzzle velocity of 500fps will go further than a .30g bb going 475fps.

 That's not an ACOG, it's an aimpoint sight.

Right some (hopefully you will see it this way!) constructive criticism.
First, the entire "Airsoft XXXXXX 101" thing is on here far too many times already, and from what I have read a lot of them are patchy. You have some decent information in here but it is again lacking in some areas where it is good in others.
I like how you discussed the impact of different weight BBs in your rifle, even if it was a little short, you have the right idea with regards speed and accuracy.
However, when you say "dont get to high with ammunition or it coud clog up your barrel and nakker it", I feel you have misunderstood something somewhere! 
The 0.26 and 0.3 - that is grams, the SI unit of mass. The diameter of the BBs should be roughly the same for all decent brands (5.95-5.98mm with tolerences in the range of +- 0.03 or so if you are using 6mm) and no manufacturer would make the heavier BBs too big to fit your barrel ;)
The rest of what you said is good, but more detail would be nice. Until then it doesn't really stand out among the other guides I have seen as there is far too little in the way of solid information or disscussion.

It's hard to be nice when your first instructable sucks so much.
