I can recommend having a go. Many local clubs in many countries worldwide have open days or will take probationer members. Normally they make no charge for the first try-out (including ammunition). You'll be introduced to a club rifle and likely a barrel rest, on a 25 meter range. Just hitting a target on your first goes will be an achievement as target rifles are fantastically heavy, even the aluminium-stocked ones. If you like what you see you can apply for a probationer membership (in countries where firearms laws are strict). Then you move through shooting with a sling attachment without the rest, loading the rifle yourself, shooting groups (into the same target) then using a scope to see your shots and adjusting accordingly as you work around a ten-target 'card'. It's a fabulously complex and intense sport, with breath control and concentration crucial. It becomes quite addictive very rapidly as you try to remember so many crucial key technical points. Its a genuine sport and one that really does pitch the competitor not just against his or her peers, but against their own willingness to learn and adapt constantly.
It seems there are a lot of people in the comments section that have never tried this style of shooting that are complaining its not very hard. I can only assume you have never actually tried it.
lot of misinformation on this thread. these are 22 caliber powder charged rifles. they are "real guns" in the classic sense. they use the 22 for a number of reasons. its a very consistent round. they don't get hot quickly, which would change the precision and accuracy of the gun. and this competition is about marksmanship. it tests the fundamentals of shooting. breathing, trigger squeeze, and sight picture. you don't need a big bore or powerful round to achieve that for a 50 meter range. America doesn't compete very well here because this style of shooting sport isn't popular. we do well in shotgun skeet shooting, which is popular in the US. while shooting is very popular in the US, those that compete in shooting do so in different fashions. like trap listed earlier, and the more combat oriented competitions that test ones speed and accuracy in target acquisition, reloading, moving with one or more different styles of firearms. "something not tested in the Olympics.
GIboy1990. These are not .22s bud their 10mm air rifles bug difference. So dont try and be all theatrical about it. And for your information i am a professional marksman myself and .22s get hot quick so not sure what your talking about.
francis he pointed out that one of the contestants who had competed in the 10m air isn't doing to hot in the 50m prone. 50m shooting is done with 22s while 10m is done with air. This is because 22s are far more consistent over that distance than air propelled bbs. This is a different event with different equipment
So experts commenting air rifles ... lol So many people stating this is easy.. Riding a bike is easy, bowling is easy, shooting is easy, running is easy *being the best in the world at a sport is not easy*

Why I'd every one hating on the sport? It's much harder than you think it takes years of training! If you don't like the sport then why are you watching this? I bet the closest you've got to this is nerf and call of duty.
Question: I've always been trained to shoot with both eyes open- In both recreational leagues as well as when I was on a tactical team. Does that "Blinder" prohibit sight in the non-dominate eye? If so, why? I've always found shooting with both eyes open gave me better detail, better target acquisition and better stamina (no migraines.) Thanks-in-advance for the feedback. Stay Strong, Boston
A 10-month old question probably has an answer now but maybe not the right one so here I go anyway. I've been shooting this discipline for several years so I'm fairly well placed to answer your question. A blinder is a cheap, often DIY and an essential piece of target shooting equipment. You absolutely SHOULD shoot with BOTH eyes OPEN but at the same time you don't want the eye not looking through the sights to be able to see anything and overlay that image over your sight picture. When you close one eye the other eye's pupil dilates to let in more light to compensate. This is a bad thing as it reduces image sharpness and depth of field. Correct use of a blinder: 1 allows you to keep both eyes open. 2 prevents the non-aiming eye from seeing anything to distract from the sight picture. 3 allows plenty of light to enter the non-aiming eye and so prevents the aiming eye's pupil dilating. You can make a blinder from a piece of translucent plastic like the side of a milk carton or frosted glass as long as you can't actually see anything through it. People fix blinders in place by either using headbands, attaching it to the rear sight or just buy shooting glasses with a movable blinder. Hopefully this helps you and anyone else seeing this and I wish you every success.
Those jackets are made to be very stiff in order to eliminate unnecessary movements in your body, hard to move but easy to keep the pose, it's a lot easier to shoot with those on, they also have "the best" pants, and those are so stiff you can't bend the legs in those. You won't need them in a prone position.
People don't know how hard this is i trained so hard to win first in GB under 16s 6yds. There's more factors to this than aim and shoot, 1 adjustment to your sight or a slight wobble will completely ruin your shot. If its so easy why isn't there people that have never done it in the Olympics.
The people commenting on why they dont use anything bigger than 22 lr obviously dont realize how much match grade ammo is. Supposedly the batches of 22lr for the Olympics are much more expensive than that bucket of Remingtons.
Many confusion here related to .22s and air rifles. For 10 m shooting, air rifles. For 50 m shooting, .22 lr rifles. It's common for competitors to train for both categories.
Instead of indoor controlled conditions, I'd like to see Olympics add outdoor 100m rimfire rifle competitions. 22lr in windy conditions at 100m is very challenging hitting coin size target groupings. Challenge them with both shooting skills and managing natural conditions.
Nope . fair and carnival rifles are always deliberately bent and never shoot where the sights point .. You just have to "know where its gonna shoot" . to hit things with it ..
I been doing that for 11 years you need the coat to hold you arms up and gives it pressure look up small board kneeling I had to do it on hard concrete st the range
UltimateHandler equipment certainly helps, but the basics of trigger press, sight alignment, breathing control, and movement control of the rifle during trigger press is all down to the person.
No magnification, they are iron sights and the target is tiny. The centre of a 25m target is barely 10mm across, and to be good your looking at scoring a consistent 98-99 each time, every time. The rifles are also deceptively heavy hence the sling.
@@Outland9000 They're not exactly iron sight but rather diopter and globe sights. Also the target is at 50m distance and the "bullseye" is 10.4mm to be precise. No magnification though when i used to do the sunday morning amateur version of this (5m free standing with air rifles. Distance was so short due to the matches being held in little brown cafes around town) i shared a rifle with my dad. Since he wears glasses we had a special diopter with a lens in it to correct for that. Me using it resulted in what i would guess is a 1.2x magnification for me. No idea if those are allowed in top level competition like this tough.
Yeah its classed as small bore shooting which is at a .22 calibre. The rifles are also made of alluminuim and all unesscary parts are not included so they can be more lightweight thats why they kind of look funny. And its supported with a sling which takes some of the weight of the rifle.
ISSF(governing body for the Games) would need to be convinced to do an "Air Triathlon"/"Gun Triathlon", which would surprise me if they even did it It would probably be something like 3-gun trap/50/50, with some other ridiculous parameter(like multi position)
We need a trick shot category. Like when they shoot behind there back or something like that. The more difficult the trick shot the more points the shooter gets.
To anybody thinks this is easy: Try lowering your heart rate to 40-50 and break the shot between the beats. Thick coats they have are for insulating the heart beat and any other minute muscular movements in the body but you still got to pull that trigger between your heart beats. Most pro shooters seem emotionless because they are in a state of trance during shooting and it takes a few moments to get out of it
I know this doesn't look like it requires much skill, but they are shooting .22 Caliber rounds (they are specially designed rifles to give minimum kickback). Those rifles that they use will cost you about $150K. And the bull's eye is only 10 millimeters in diameter. It's harder than it looks lol
LOL you're SO off here... The most expensive rifles used in this discipline are around 10k$, far far away from 150k. Who fooled you into thinking that?

As a former junior competitor, they always had the girls shoot less rounds at the state olympic matches... But as soon as we were grouped together, it was not uncommon to get absolutely destroyed by the girls. I definitely agree that there is no reason to divide into two groups.
Hunter Lang I disagree. As a former infantryman I know it’s a fact that women have much smaller lungs and completely breathing pattern than men thus in general they hold much steadier shots than men at the range everything else being equal. If grouped together in this kind of precise shooting match women would have more advantages. It would have been very different if it was a real military rifle competition that involves running.
That potentially explains why it is so common to see females leading in open competitions... We would often go out to national smallbore and air rifle matches only to see the finals mostly full of females. Thank you, you may have answered a question that I have had for a long time.
