100 meter running deer information


The American shooter Walter Winans during a 100-meter running deer competition in Wimbledon Common, London (painting by Thomas Blinks, 1888).

100 meter running deer is a discontinued ISSF shooting event, that was part of the Olympic program from 1908 to 1924, in 1952 and 1956, and of the ISSF World Shooting Championships program from 1929 to 1962, when it was replaced by 50 meter running target. Being the original running target event, it was shot with centerfire rifles from a distance of 100 meters, with the target moving sideways across a 20-meter-wide opening. There were two versions: single shot and double shot. Occasionally combined competitions, with half the course fired single-shot and half double-shot, were held instead of or in addition to the others. The Nordic Shooting Region continued to hold championships in the discipline until 2004.[1] The British Sporting Rifle Club continues to operate a 100 meter running deer range at the National Shooting Centre, Bisley.[2]
