I'd like to say yes, but the advantages dont really swing it for me. IMO its not "enough" range increase. However if someone were to hand me an accurate m40a5 I'd be hard pressed to say no.
I have both and my sniper gets very little use these days, in milsim events then a sniper can be very effective but in general fast paced games it's almost pointless, I'm even toying with selling mine purely due to lack of use
