For the other disciplines, the position is always standing, and changes include limits to shooting times and different types of targets. The present events Discontinued events Due to the ISSF, some Olympic events have been discontinued in the past. In total, Forty-five ISSF events have been discontinued. Common principles All ISSF shooting events consist of ''precision'' shooting in the sense that only the position of the shot on the target determines the result, not the time used to produce that shot (provided the time was within the set constraints, of course).
