Rifle competitions are organized events where participants use rifles to shoot at targets, aiming for accuracy and precision. These competitions can take place in various formats, including prone shooting, standing shooting, and three-position shooting, where competitors shoot from different positions. Participants are often categorized by skill level, age, and type of rifle used, such as air rifles or smallbore rifles. Scoring is based on the number of points earned for hitting targets, with the highest scores determining the winners. These events promote marksmanship skills and sportsmanship among shooters.
