Practical shooting, also known as dynamic shooting or action shooting, is a set of shooting sports in which the competitors try to unite the three principles of precision, power, and speed, by using a firearm of a certain minimum power factor to score as many points as possible during the shortest time. While scoring systems vary between organizations, each measures the time in which the course is completed, with penalties for inaccurate shooting. The courses are called "stages", and are shot individually by the shooters. Usually the shooter must move and shoot from several positions, fire under or over obstacles and in other unfamiliar positions. There are no standard exercises or set arrangement of the targets, and the courses are often designed so that the shooter must be inventive, and therefore the solutions of exercises sometimes vary between shooters.

Australia–Yugoslavia relations were historical foreign relations between now split-up Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and Australia. Australia and Yugoslavia established formal diplomatic relations in 1966. Two countries decided to establish embassies, initially at the Charge d'Affaires level, to facilitate practical contacts, particularly in the field of migration. Australia recognized advantages of special relations and contacts with other countries in Eastern Europe but also the role it played in many of the meetings and activities of Non-Aligned countries. Relations between two countries were complicated by Yugoslav bad relations with its emigration in Australia which was often perceived to be significantly prone towards radical nationalism, anti-Yugoslavism and even widespread sympathies for the World War II collaborationist movements. Delegation of the Parliament of Yugoslavia visited Australia in 1970, while the Parliament of Australia returned visit in February 1971.
