NSF 15m Rifle target
This card carries NSF's own national rifle event, with programmes from 30 shots prone for under-17s in Åpen rekrutt to three-position matches. Prone and seated matches are scored in tenths, standing and three-position ones in whole rings, and an inner ten must touch the very centre. The events are new since 2023, and NSF has yet to set skill-badge scores for them.

Badges
Norway · NSF
NAIS-medaljen (NSF)
NAIS medal (NSF)
The NAIS medal was instituted in 1939 as the army-rifle medal of NAIS, the Norwegian branch of the International Shooting Union. Its rules were much simplified in 1990, with slightly higher scores for the better precision rifles, and pistol, clay and running target joined the programme in 1994. NAIS results are not reported to NSF: the organiser records and keeps them on trust.
Shot as a NAIS shoot of its own, run by a Forsvaret unit or a DFS or NSF club; the organiser’s signed result counts. The badges may be won in any order; the medals from the year after the gilt-badge score, the gilt medal after the silver, with one counting result per medal level a year. The recruit badge, for shooters who turn 16 or younger in the year, is won once. Bronze, silver and gilt enamel stars follow the gilt medal, each for its score in three different years, then a statuette.

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.
