What target is used in 5-Meter Air Rifle?

• A. Archery Target A1
• B. Daisy #5815 or #AR 4/105-meter air rifle target
• C. NRA B-8
• D. NRA Pistol Rules #16650

Answer: (B)

The target used for 5-Meter Air Rifle is a dedicated 5-meter rifle target. This is a standardized paper target with scoring rings sized for the 5-meter distance, ensuring consistent aiming and scoring for young shooters. The common options you’ll see are Daisy 5815 or the AR 4/10-meter air rifle target, both designed specifically for 5-meter rifle practice. Using these targets keeps practice aligned with how scores are recorded in 5-meter events.

Archery targets are for archery and aren’t appropriate for air rifle scoring. Targets like NRA B-8 or NRA Pistol Rules are intended for other disciplines or distances, so they don’t fit the 5-meter air rifle format.
