Shooting at the 1900 Summer Olympics – Men's 300 metre free rifle, standing

This was the only appearance of the men's 300 metre standing rifle event. A three-positions event was also included in 1900 (summing the scores of the standing, kneeling, and prone competitions); the three-positions event continued, but future Games would not have separate standing-position events in this format.[1]

Eight of the nine medalists at the world championships since the world championships began in 1897 were competing. The world champions were Ole Østmo of Norway (1897), Achille Paroche of France (1898), and Franz Böckli of Switzerland (1899). The Olympic event doubled as the 1900 world championship.[2]

The competition had each shooter fire 40 shots from the standing position. The target was 1 metre in diameter, with 10 scoring rings; targets were set at a distance of 300 metres. Thus, the maximum score possible was 400 points. The scores from this event were combined with the other two positions (kneeling and prone) to give a three-positions individual score as well as a team score.[2]

Each shooter fired 40 shots, for a total possible of 400 points.
