A group of air rifle
shooters on the 10 metre range
A
group of air rifle shooters on
the 10 metre range showing both the right kind of stance and the right kind of
equipment to do well at this most exacting and demanding of the
standing shooting disciplines. This is an Olympic sport and
in the final, each shot is scored to 1/10th of a point. The maximum possible score
is 600 in the main event plus 109 in the final (made up of an additional 10
shots, each with a maximum value of 10.9). To date neither maximum has
ever been achieved under competition conditions; do you think that you could do
it? The person nearest to the camera is using a stand to rest his rifle on
whilst operating the target changing mechanism.
