Results for Compak Sporting

Compak Sporting, for those who don’t know, is a discipline between Sporting and Trap. The shooting range consists of 5 firing points, with cages to limit their angles and prevent the shooters from aiming towards their neighbours. There are all sorts of targets with a maximum of 15% rabbit (the bullseye).

Each post features a menu that shows the target order the shooter must observe, whether in mounted position or not.
