Fullbore Target Rifle (TR) is a precision rifle shooting sport governed by the International Confederation of Fullbore Rifle Associations (ICFRA). The sport evolved as a distinct British and Commonwealth of Nations discipline from Service rifle (SR) shooting in the late 1960s. Due to this history, it is contested amongst the shooting events at the Commonwealth Games, although not at the Olympics. Its development was heavily influenced by the British National Rifle Association (NRA). The annual NRA Imperial Meeting at Bisley in the UK is globally recognised as a historic meeting for the discipline.
