I use a TM AUG with a 4x32mm scope on top. The only upgrade is a PSG-1 TN 6.04 tightbore that I need in there so that the BBs can actually clear the H-BAR and flash hider (home made flash hider). I'd consider it a 'sniper-ish' rifle( + drum mag

), but I doubt it could compare to some of the SPRs, etc super upgraded rifles here on ASC.
I'm a fairly new player and haven't taken any sort of dedicated role, so I can't really tell you what the range on it is... I'd say... pretty far...
Mud: Actually, my battery concerns are for my friend/tag-along, who is using a G36 and only has one 8.4V 600mAh mini for the entire day... I don't know how he shoots, but I'm worried that one mini won't be enough in the cold.
