Sports shooting at the Olympics / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The men's team military rifle, also referred to as the International, was one of 15 events on the Shooting at the 1908 Summer Olympics programme.[1] Teams consisted of six shooters, with each shooter firing 90 shots at targets at varying distances. Fifteen shots were fired at each of six distances: 200, 500, 600, 800, 900, and 1000 yds 1,000 yards (910 m) (based on traditional military rifle range distances in English speaking countries). A bulls-eye counted for five points, and thus the highest possible score for each shooter was 450 points, with the team maximum being 2700.
