Precision shooting

Precision shooting refers to the skill of accurately hitting a target using firearms, often under strict conditions. This discipline emphasizes technique, such as breathing control, trigger discipline, and consistent stance. Competitors and enthusiasts engage in various formats, including Olympic shooting and tactical contexts. Key elements include understanding ballistics—how bullets travel—and making adjustments for distance, wind, and environmental factors. Precision shooting is both a sport and a method for training marksmanship, requiring focus, patience, and extensive practice to master the art of hitting small, distant targets reliably.
