- The precision rifle (PG) classes are up to 7 mm (from 5.45 mm) and over 7 mm (up to 8 mm): rifles of up to 10.0 kg with any trigger, sights and stock, a fore-end at most 76 mm wide, shot prone from rests ('spezial').BDS rule L 6.01
- Rests
- 'Spezial' means conventional benchrest rests front and rear, neither joined together nor fixed to the ground; the fore-end may be supported over no more than 150 mm before the trigger guard, the rifle must lift freely out, and bipods and sandbags are allowed.BDS rule L 14.08.6
- Course
- The programme is 15 shots in 15 minutes at district championships, two 10-shot series of 10 minutes at state and three at the German championship, after any number of sighters within 5 minutes; ranges with alternating target frames may adapt it.BDS rules L 6.02 and L 6.04
- Alternating frames
- With alternating target frames two shooters take turns, shot by shot, with 10 minutes of sighting and at most 60 minutes of scoring for the pair; shooters also take turns marking in the pit.BDS rules L 6.06.3 and L 6.07
- Marking
- In the pit each shot is covered with a red marker and, after the next shot, taped over with clear tape; after ten shots the card is changed.BDS rule L 6.05
- Banned rifles
- Rifles that can be used in the service-rifle scope event (3111 DSG ZF) are not allowed, nor are lever, falling-block or rotating-block (Drehblock) actions.BDS rule L 14.01.9
- Scoring and ties
- A hit takes the higher ring when it visibly touches the dividing line; in doubt, approved overlays with printed calibre diameters may be used. Ties go to the most 10s, then the most inner tens, then the most 9s, 8s, 7s and so on.BDS rules A 9.02 and A 9.03

Training on paper? Photograph a card and the Shooter app finds the holes and scores them by these rings: every shot, your inner tens, the series total, your group’s size and centre. Holes merged? Add, move or remove a shot. Every card joins your training log, so drift shows up over time.
Scored with AI for now, which needs internet and your permission to upload the photo to an AI service in the US. Some AI scans may be free while we collect photos of this target; then each uses an AI credit (sold in packs in the app). Scoring by hand is free.
