It is often practiced at indoor or outdoor ranges and can include various disciplines such as prone, standing, and kneeling positions. The sport emphasizes precision and control, making it popular among both beginners and experienced shooters. Competitions in small-bore shooting can be individual or team events, and they are governed by organizations like the National Rifle Association (NRA) and the International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF). Participants aim to hit targets at varying distances, usually 50 meters or 100 yards, showcasing their marksmanship skills.
