A fundamental principle of Metallic Silhouette Shooting is the use of unmodified (factory) rifles, both in the “hunter” and the “match” classes. The targets are cut out of metal in the shape of animals and are designed to fall over when a “hit” is scored. The four targets are set up in five banks at distances ranging from 40 to 100 metres. All shooting is done from the standing position. When shot indoors, paper targets are used.
