I used to do biathlon for air cadets in canada. really fun sport. takes focus and lots of stamina.

Keenan Bartlome I’m sure people have created their own custom courses to deal with that sort of distance. But all a bigger round does is add weight and having any distance past 50m would make it very hard to make it a spectators sport

If only we could have watched them go through an entire phase in which the biathletes ski into the range area and actually shoot at the targets both standing and prone.

Love the bolts on the guns. Wish they had something like this for large caliber rifles But probably wouldn't work ha

No it's nothing like an AR15 unless you mean that they both fire a .22 caliber projectile. The AR15 fires a .223 Remington (5.56×45mm) round with a semi-automatic action, meaning the rifle will use expelled gases from each shot to load a new round into the action after each trigger pull. Where as the rifles used for biathlon are chambered in .22LR and use a straight pull bolt action, which require a manual action by the user to load a new round into the action after each trigger pull.

1:18 basically a curved straight pull bolt, Ferdinand Mannlicher would be proud. best of both worlds within bolt-action rifle design. again, we should probably have better fire arms education for athletes so they don't look stupid going into gun control endorsement. in fact most control enthusiasts never handled a rifle before let alone a pistol. IT'S LIKE asking a private (only in relativity to experience) to lead as a General especially in the particular choice of assaulting a position with only hunting rifles despite having better gear available and that can get the job done quicker with less risk to the soldier also many sports were alternate forms of training for war, almost all of ancient Greek's sports were combat sports, except for Rugby and Arguable discus (though i bet it would simulate throwing smaller shields, it's possible to use as a weapon, a Roman Emperor got assassinated by one in the Very Roman Colosseum)

The .22 ammunition comes in several sizes: .22 short, .22 long, then .22 long rifle and they are all a little different lengths. You can also get .22 bird-shot ( I always called it rat-shot)...like a tiny shotgun shell with 'shot' inside. At least this was the long time standard sizes for many years. The .22 short has the least amount of powder, then increasing with the 'long', then 'long rifle'. Today, you can get even more powerful .22 ammo in several different configurations. So the lowly .22 ammo has come a long way.

@marbleman52

Hillary Clintub ( Uugghh...I had to wash my hands after typing that ...). I didn't include .22 magnum because it is a completely different cartridge than the typical .22 varieties. It has the same name of .22, but that is where the similarities end. A .22 magnum will not fit in a .22 rifle chamber, it's a larger diameter casing. Yes, at first glance, a .22 magnum looks just like a .22; just a little longer and a little fatter...but they are NOT the same. I have both types of rifle. And I do happen to have some .22 Long's, but I primarily just shoot the long rifle cartridge. Some .22 rifles can handle the shorts & longs and of course the long rifle, and other rifles can only shoot the long rifle cartridge. I really like plinking with my .22 magnum rifle...it really packs a punch..!!

If I may, the problem there is your aperture is too small. You are probably using a .050 aperature (or thereabouts) when you'd be better suited with a .080 for low light. A proper aperture sight is better in every single way than typical irons. Check out Brownell's or Midway and get a larger rear aperture for your rifle.

Scout snipers 🤷🏽‍♂️

Why not just have semi auto 22s

i feel like they shouldn't get to clip a stabilizer....that rifle is already so ergonomic, what are they going for, 0% muscle usage? who cares if it's not hard?
