Mirage is your friend bro. Learn to use it to your advantage. You can determine how the wind is acting. The answer it your question is no. Even the most expensive optics have mirage and its not necessarly a bad thing.

Re: mirage
If you have a variable power scope and you are having a hard time observing your target, slowly power down and (depending how bad the mirage is and how low power your optic will go) it will probably appear to lessen or it might even go away. But like the rest of the guys have already said, you can use mirage to your advantage to determine wind speed and direction...........

Re: mirage
55* and mirage...barrel mirage shield might help with that.
I have only got mirage when it's hotter than about 72* out. Should be interesting when I get out to shoot here in TN
