Yeah, 3 Olympic rifle events for men, 2 for women
Men:
- Air rifle (0.177) (60 shots standing in 75mins) @ 10m indoors
- Prone (.22lr) (60 shots prone in 75mins) @ 50m outdoors (a.k.a. an "English Match")
- 3P (.22lr) (40 shots prone in 45mins, 40 shots standing in 90mins, 40 shots kneeling in 60mins) @ 50m outdoors (a.k.a. a 3x40)
Women:
- Air rifle (0.177) (60 shots standing in 75mins) @ 10m indoors
- 3P (.22lr) (20 shots prone, standing and kneeling in 90mins) @ 50m outdoors
The best way into it is through 20yd/25yd indoor shooting on the NSRA targets so you can set up your kit and your position properly before you go outside and have to deal with wind, sun, etc.
NSRA website is a lot better than it was. It was relaunched a few months ago, but it's still best to go talk to some people who actually do it. It's much the same as smallbore week and the imperial. Everything is pretty straightforward and self-explanatory - if you know it!
Failing that, register on forum.stirton.com
I'm on there under the same username, and it's frequented by most of the UK's top shooters and coaches (Dave Phelps, Chris Hector, Mike Babb, Mick Gault, Neil Stirton, Michelle Smith, Donald McIntosh, et al), plus various staff from the NSRA. Proper wealth of experience and knowledge.
