@Reddog Kind of a weird take to apply such a label to Olympic air rifle. Should we suppress coverage of Olympic Fencing because "knife usage" and stabbings are a bad thing? Objectively, fencing is a much more violent sport - two people attacking one another with bladed weapons. So say nothing of taekwondo and other martial arts!
If the BBC, IOC, UKSport, etc are comfortable with it, this is possibly not the "gun usage" you're thinking of...

Shooting has gained prominence at the OIympics with Nathan Hales winning gold in trap and Amber Rutter securing silver in skeet.
