Field shooting

• Nordic handgun field-shooting competitions are shot with pistol and revolver in different classes depending on equipment, with classes up from small-bore.22 LR to large-bore.500 S&W Magnum. Matches are held outdoor throughout the year with varied shooting targets and distances, and are arranged by the Norwegian Shooting Association, the Danish Gymnastics and Sports Associations and the Swedish Pistol Shooting Association.
• Nordic rifle field-shooting are shot with either small-bore.22 LR cartridge at 100 meters, or intermediate or battle rifle cartridges at distances from 100 to 650 meters. With 200 and 300 meters being ordinary shooting distance in Nordic Bullseye Rifle-Shooting, those targets placed well beyond 300 meters in Rifle Field-Shooting means that the competition format also can be classified as a long range shooting discipline. Matches are usually held in the winter season with varied targets, and are arranged by the National Rifle Association of Norway, the Danish Gymnastics and Sports Associations and the Swedish Shooting Sport Association.
• Swiss field shooting under the Swiss Shooting Sport Federation. The annual championship has been held for over 130 years, and is shot at the same time in several decentralized locations gathering up to 135,000 participants, perhaps making this event the largest shooting competition in the world
• Precision rifle competitions, like the Precision Rifle Series, is both a field and long range shooting discipline where rifles with intermediate or battle rifle cartridges are shot in the terrain at varying distances from about 10 to 1000 meters.
• Field target is an outdoor air gun discipline originating in the United Kingdom, but gaining popularity worldwide.
