- In NRA bullseye shooting the classification is as follows:
-
- master......95% and above
- expert......90-95
- sharpshooter...85-90
- marksman ......below 85
-

- These classifications are given after shooting 360 shots at standard
- targets at standard distances. If you want the standard target sizes
- and courses of fire, let me know. One example is the 50 yd. slow fire
- target with 3.39" 10-ring where you shot 10 shots in 10 mins.
