Three types of guns are used at the Olympic Games, where shooting has been part of the programme since the first modern Games in 1896. In rifle and pistol events, competitors have to hit a 10-ring target from a distance of 10, 25 or 50 metres. Depending on the event, competitors need to shoot while standing up, on their knees or lying down. In shotgun events, participants shoot at mobile targets, launched upwards and to the front.
Matthew Coward-Holley returned from Tokyo with British Shooting's single medal, thanks to a bronze in the men's trap.
