1
Silhouette - 35 to 90 meter
Metallic silhouette where shooters fire at metal animal-shaped targets (chickens, pigs, turkeys, and rams) at various distances. The goal isn’t just to hit the target — you have to knock it down. Scoring is simple: if the target falls, it counts.
2
50 meter Prone Target Rifle
50-Meter Prone Target Rifle shooting is a precision event using a .22-caliber target rifle. Shooters lie flat on their stomachs—the prone position—and fire at paper targets placed 50 meters away. The target has tiny scoring rings, so even the slightest movement or mistake can cost points. Success depends on steady breathing, careful trigger control, and repeating the same position perfectly for each shot.

50 meter Prone with Silhouette Rifle
50-Meter Prone Target Rifle shooting is a precision event using a .22-caliber sports rifle. Shooters lie flat on their stomachs—the prone position—and fire at paper targets placed 50 meters away. The target has tiny scoring rings, so even the slightest movement or mistake can cost points. Success depends on steady breathing, careful trigger control, and repeating the same position perfectly for each shot.
4
Bench Rest Target - 50 meter Open Rifle
Bench Rest Target shooting at 50 meters with a target rifle and is all about precision and consistency. Instead of standing or lying down, the shooter sits at a bench and rests the rifle on a front and rear support. This helps reduce body movement so the shooter can focus completely on aiming and trigger control. The target is placed 50 meters away and has small scoring rings, so even a tiny mistake can change the score. The “open rifle” part means shooters can use any level of magnification to see the target.
5
Bench Rest - 50 meter with Silhouette Rifle
Bench Rest Target shooting at 50 meters with a sport rifle at six power which adds an extra level of difficalty to precision and consistency. Instead of standing or lying down, the shooter sits at a bench and rests the rifle on a front and rear support. This helps reduce body movement so the shooter can focus completely on aiming and trigger control. The target is placed 50 meters away and has small scoring rings, so even a tiny mistake can change the score. The “open rifle” part means shooters can use any level of magnification to see the target.
6
Bench Rest Target - 50 meter Open (no back rest)
Bench Rest Target shooting at 50 meters with a target rifle and is all about precision and consistency with a twist. Instead of standing or lying down, the shooter sits at a bench and rests the rifle on a front support only. This helps reduce some body movement so the shooter has to focus on aiming, trigger control and supporting the rear off the gun. The target is placed 50 meters away and has small scoring rings, so even a tiny mistake can change the score. The “open rifle” part means shooters can use any level of magnification to see the target.
7
Air Rifle Supported
Air Rifle Supported shooting is a precision sport where the shooter uses an air rifle and fires at electronic target, 10 meters away. What makes it “supported” is that the rifle rests on a stand or support, which helps steady the aim. This makes it easier to focus on breathing, trigger control, and accuracy instead of balance or holding the rifle’s weight. It’s a great way for beginners or shooters with less strength or mobility to learn the skills of target shooting while still aiming for tight, accurate groups on the target.
8
R.B.A Bench Rest - 50 meter Open Rifle
R.B.A Bench Rest – 50 Meter Open Rifle is a type of precision target shooting where the shooter sits at a bench and fires at targets 50 meters away. “R.B.A” stands for Rimfire Benchrest Association, which sets the rules and standards for this kind of competition. The rifle rests on front and rear supports, so the shooter can focus entirely on aiming, trigger control and the wind. The targets have very small scoring rings, and even the tiniest breeze or movement can affect the shot. The “open rifle” part means shooters can use any power scopes. It’s a calm but very technical sport that rewards patience, consistency, and attention to detail.
