This video details the unusual phenomenon of observing .22LR bullets in flight during a rimfire match. The shooter, using high-magnification scopes on a CZ 457 rifle with Federal Champion 40-grain ammo, captured footage showing a brief white dot, interpreted as the bullet, just before impact. The explanation suggests air distortion and mirage effects, typically seen with larger caliber bullets, are visible due to the high magnification and specific lighting conditions.

This review of the Athlon Argos 6-24x50 FFP riflescope highlights its value for long-range shooting. The reviewer, who has owned the scope for over four years and used it extensively on an AR platform with 5.56 ammunition, praises its optical clarity, tactile turrets, and consistent zero hold. While noting minor imperfections like slightly misaligned turret markings and a stiff magnification ring, the scope is recommended for its performance and price point, especially compared to similarly priced second focal plane options.
