Three-Position air rifle, commonly referred to as 3-P Air, is the most popular and fastest growing form of shooting sports competition for youth of high school age or younger.  Two different Three-Position Air Rifle events are available.  Precision Air Rifle is modeled after Olympic-style shooting and allows the use of specialized target rifles and equipment.  Sporter Air Rifle is designed for new competitors or those who desire to compete with a minimum of equipment and expense. Precision and sporter competitions are fired on the same targets and most are shot simultaneously in competition.
