The wider picture
This Olympic shooting event had its own equipment, target and qualification requirements. The final ranking belongs to the specified discipline, rather than to an overall shooting championship. Where a qualification score was carried into the final, the aggregate determined the medals. Rifle, pistol and shotgun totals used different scales, making comparisons across those disciplines misleading.
