The runs lasted about 4 seconds each and took place 110 yards (100 meters) distant from the shooter.

There were three concentric circles on the target, with the smallest counting for 4 points, the middle for 3, and the outermost for 2.

A hit outside the circles but still on the target (except on the haunch) counted for 1 point.

[2] De Wael also lists another British shooter, John Bashford, as having competed and placed lower than Barbillat.

However, the Official Report makes no mention of Bashford in its list of competitors.
