First off, it seems you're new to this community, so we need to know what purpose you want to do with a sniper rifle. If you want to join organized games, if nobody know you, you probably won't be able to play as a sniper, as there is a lot of rules, engagment and other stuff.

In the range of 200-300, you might be able to get a sniper, but it won't be a high-end Rifle, but more of a clone, which are easier to strip internals normally.

Don't get a sniper as a first gun. Thats all I really have to say. You'll waste your time, money, and you won't like it. Get an AEG. And save up a little more than 200-300 dollars. That won't get you anywhere in airsoft. Anything you buy for that will fall apart within a few days, and will be ungameable.

I suggest neither as neither will perform all that well out of the box. Both require sufficient upgrades to make them reliable and consistent. If you want a quality rifle then purchase the TM or Maruzen versions as after market parts are made for these items, the after market parts will fit in the clones but often users will find that there will be fitment issues.

There are lots of reviews on this website and on the internet, I dont think you need any hand holding to make a decision.
