No, but a Rifleman's patch would be a lot easier to earn with an optically-sighted 10/22 w/shooting sling than, say, an iron-sighted AR carbine sans sling.

I shoot the same scores on an AQT whether with my 4x magnified Marlin 795, or my iron-sighted M14.
When you get off the bench and learn to shoot using your body as the support instrument for the rifle, scope/sights don't matter until you're so far away that you can no longer see the target. All a scope does, is allow you to fuss the shot and I've actually had shooters shoot worse with scopes than with irons due to the fussing.
I've met plenty of riflemen with AR carbine M4geries on the line.
Now, sans sling? That's just silly.
Every Rifleman has a sling!
Next, you'll be talking about "mexican" carry of a Glock as a sensible thing, too!
