Air Rifle (AT HOME EVENT)
Is a precision shooting event which is held at the Paralympic level. While the NVWGatHome will conduct a 40-shot match, typical matches consist of 60-shots in 50 minutes. Shooters are given a 15-minute period prior to the match start to adjust their position and shoot unlimited sighters. The sighters are used to adjust their sights before the match and do not count towards their score. Since this is a Paralympic event, consideration is given to participants’ physical limitations to make the sport accessible. Available adaptations include: • Spring Stands for SH-2 shooters • Sip/puff triggers for those with limited hand control • Shooting tables to allow shooters to compete in Prone matches from a chair. The targets are mailed to competitors for the match and must be returned for scoring. These matches us the Orion Scoring System, which allows the targets to be scanned for consistent scoring.
