The Anatomy Of A Modern Biathlon Rifle


Fox News interviewed biathlon coach Kris Cheney-Seymour about the rifle used in the sport. Let's just say it isn't your average .22 rifle.




Cheney-Seymour was Olympian Lowell Bailey's biathlon coach through high school in Lake Placid, NY. Bailey was the highest placing American in the 10km biathlon sprint earlier this week. His 33rd place finish qualified him for the 12.5km pursuit to be held this coming Monday.

  1. How did biathlon get away from using service rifles which was the original point of the sport?
