What's with those funky Olympic Weapons?

[AFJuvat]

Perfectly balanced with counterweights to reduce or eliminate recoil, vibration, or barrel whipping.

They are customizable, or it can be tuned to an individual shooter.

They aren't really practical for anything other than match use. Drop it and it's accuracy can be comprimized.

Here is site that sells them. Pretty pricy for a 22LR.

Yes, and probably only affordable for Olympic or ISSF competitors... perhaps so that the "standard" for the IDPA and that class of competitions are a bit lower.

Here's the one my daughter used in Middle School and High School on the shooting team, and it was a no-frills entry level rifle ($1200 from the CMP at the time)

No excuses rifles. If you are off with one of those it is only the shooter. I would love to scatter some .22 all over that target!
