Leistungsabzeichen des BDMP

BDMP proficiency badges

The BDMP awards its badge only to shooters who have met their sporting and financial obligations to the federation. Its rules also set levels for PPC 1500, the Bianchi Cup and long-range rifle from 300 to 800 m. Every claim is checked against the match’s result list before it reaches the federal office, and each pin comes with a certificate signed by the BDMP’s president.

Shot at BDMP competitions only — the German and Landes championships, and supra-regional matches with at least 8 shooters from 3 clubs (SLGs) — by members of the BDMP and of friendly federations; one badge per weapon type per competition.

Leistungs- und Meisterschützenabzeichen des DSB

DSB proficiency and master marksman badges

The DSB gives its performance badges each year to reward results and to encourage shooting for performance. A badge result can also count as the coordination test of the German Sports Badge (Deutsches Sportabzeichen) the same year. Clubs order the badges on a form at the end of each quarter, through their district, from their state association; in 2026 a small badge cost €4.00, a large one €4.50 and the master marksman badge €6.50.

Age classes go by the age reached in the calendar year, the DSB’s sport year.

How it is shot

Standard rifle · Free rifle · Prone match · Rifle changes · Percussion rifle · Gauging · Ties
Standard rifle
The large-bore standard rifle (men) and sport rifle (women) are 3×20 shots kneeling, prone and standing, in 135 minutes on target carriers or 120 on other systems; below state championships the men's standard rifle is a half programme.DSB Teil 1, pp. 19–21
Free rifle
The men's large-bore free rifle is 3×40 shots in 210 minutes on target carriers or 180 on other systems; the rifle and its accessories may be changed between positions.DSB rule 1.6; Teil 1, p. 21
Prone match
The 300 m prone match is 60 shots in 75 minutes on target carriers or 60 on other systems; its repeater version has 60 minutes, 45 on electronic targets.DSB rule 0.21; Teil 1, p. 21
Rifle changes
The 300 m standard rifle must be one rifle for all three positions: a new front sight or rear sight disc, or moving the butt plate up or down or the hand stop, is no change; swapping the whole tunnel or diopter is not allowed.DSB rule 1.5.2
Percussion rifle
Percussion free rifles shoot it prone at 300 m: 15 shots in 40 minutes, after 10 minutes of preparation with unlimited sighters; a hit takes the higher ring only if the centre of the hole lies on the line.DSB rules 0.21, 7.7.1, 7.7.3 and 7.7.5
Gauging
For the cartridge rifles a hit takes the higher ring when the bullet visibly touches that ring’s outer line; doubtful hits are measured with an 8.00 mm gauge.DSB rules 0.11.3 and 0.11.3.2
Ties
Ties are broken by the last ten-shot series, counting back, then the most 10s, 9s, 8s and so on, then the most inner tens; otherwise the rank is shared, except in rested events. Equal maximum scores stay tied unless a final is shot.DSB rule 0.12.1

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.
