Rifle & Pistol<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n In qualifying, competitors begin the rifle and pistol events by shooting at a 10-ring target. The final ring scoring divides the 10-ring target into scoring zones of 10.0-10.9, with 10.9 representing the highest score. Additionally, the number of shots taken in the final varies from event to event.<\/p>\n
Skeet & Trap<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n In skeet and trap occasions, contenders take shots at flying dirt articles outside. Each effective shot at one of the dirt shots is worth one point. A shoot-off ends the ties between trap and skeet. The countback rule is the next step if the competitors tie in the shoot-off. This takes into account the scores of the last 25 targets (15 for double trap).<\/p>\n
<\/span>Olympic Shooting Positions<\/span><\/h3>\nStanding, prone, and kneeling are all acceptable shooting positions. During the three positions events, each one is used.<\/p>\n
