Chapter 500: Steady, Shoot, Bang!

At 16:45, the men's 50m rifle prone final is about to begin. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the 50-meter final shooting range of the shooting center, 8 finalists lined up at the No. 1~8 shooting position.

The mat is spread out, the rifle rests on the gun rack, and the 8 players are facing the spectator stand with their backs to the target, and the host is introducing the players.

The bald gunman at position 1 was dressed in a green, white and red shooting suit, and when the host introduced him, the audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers, and the bald gunman was Italian star Campriani.

After the implementation of the new shooting regulations, the shooting hall, which used to be as quiet and even depressing as a church, has now become a sea of joy, where the audience can cheer, shout, judge and dance, which is similar to the atmosphere of watching the game in the basketball stadium.

For the audience, this is liberation and release, and the environment that the atmosphere did not dare to take a breath before made people so depressed.

This is a new challenge for the shooters, with nine out of 10 shooters enjoying quietness rather than fun.

Booth 2 was a sleek South Korean gunner Kim Chang-do, and Booth 3 saw Doke, who wore a red and white suit, finished third in qualifying.

The gunners at position 4~8 came from Italy, Germany, the Czech Republic, Poland and India, and two Italians entered the final, while Europeans occupied five of the eight seats in the final. Asian athletes are also on the rise, with three players from China, South Korea and India having a chance to qualify for the Olympics, and once they reach the final, everything starts from scratch and everyone has a chance.

At 17 o'clock, the 8 gunners completed the empty gun preview and test firing, and the referee gave a signal: "Start loading, enter the first group of 3 rounds scoring stage!" ”

Bang!

The first to release the gun was Duke, who turned on [Desperate] and fired a 10.8 ring with the first shot.

"Good!" On the coach's bench a few meters behind the shooting position, Director Huang secretly applauded, and Du Ke hit a 10.8 ring with the first shot, which was very refreshing.

Bang bang!

Reload, Aim Quickly, Fire ...... Reloading, aiming quickly, and firing, Douc fired two more shots, and he was the first to complete the first set of 3 basic shots.

A 10.8 was followed by two 10.6s, and Douc scored 32 rings in the first set of base points. At this time, the slowest gunman, Kim Chang-do, had not yet fired the first bullet.

At this time, Duke looked at the big screen of the overall score, and his 32 rings ranked first.

Suddenly, there was warm applause from the audience, and Italy's Campriani also hit 10.8 in the last shot, and his first set of three rings was 10.5, 10.7, and 10.8, one shot was more accurate than the other, and the total ring value of 32 rings tied with Duco for the first place.

The 100-second shot time was up, and all eight players completed the three shots of the first set.

Duke and Campriani are temporarily tied for first place with 32 rings, Germany's Mann and South Korea's Kim Chang-do are tied for second with 31.5 rings, and India, the Czech Republic, Poland and another Italian player De Nicolo are ranked 5~8.

Referee: "Start reloading, score the second set of three rounds." ”

Bang! Bang bang!

Gunshots rang out one after another.

Director Huang's brows furrowed slightly, not good, Du Ke's second group only hit 9.7 in the first shot!

The coaches of each team can only sit in the back and watch, and are not allowed to come forward to communicate with the athletes, so Coach Huang can only be in a hurry. The base score is the bottom, of course, it will also have an impact on the final ranking, the top three in this final can get the Olympic ticket, in this level of rifle prone final, playing less than 10 rings is a small mistake, hitting 9 rings or less is a big mistake, playing six rings and seven rings can basically go home early.

10.0~10.4 is the guaranteed ring value, 10.5 or more is a good 10 ring, the higher the ring value, the better.

Duke fired two more shots, 10.0 and 10.2, and his two sets of base rings were 61.9 rings, and he fell from joint first to fifth all of a sudden.

After two sets of 6 rounds, the eight players are ranked as follows:

1, Campriani, 63.5;

2, Mann, 63.0;

3, Jin Changdu, 62.6;

4, Singh, 62.1;

5, Duke, 61.9;

6, Bates, 61.7;

7, Horcella, 61.0;

8, De Niccolò, 61.0.

Duke also knew that his second set of basic points was not played well, but he didn't have time to regret it, and the double-serve elimination began.

The two-shot elimination stage, in which each gunner fires one bullet in 30 seconds and two rounds knocks out the bottom of the rankings, is a tense and brutal stage.

"I don't believe it, I won't be able to play with guns without relying on my life?" Duke takes aim and then slams the shot, 10.3.

Bang, another shot, 10.2.

"It seems that Duke is participating in an international competition for the first time and is competing for an Olympic quota, after all, there is pressure." Director Huang looked at the ring value of each of Du Ke's shots, and silently analyzed, he was also under a lot of pressure, and the two disciples he brought were all wiped out.

There was also more pressure to cause the performance to be abnormal, the sixth-ranked Czech player Bates, who hit a 7.7 in the second shot and was eliminated in the first round of double-serve elimination.

With seven players left on the field, Duke remains in fifth place with 82.4 rings.

Duke looked at the standings, he was 0.4 rings ahead of sixth-place Hoccella and 0.1 rings behind fourth-place Singh, first ahead of India's Singh.

The second round of double-serve elimination begins.

Bang bang! Duke hit two rings of the same size, two 10.4s. Each time the target paper is hit, it automatically moves down a certain distance, so there is no chance that the back bullet will pass through the bullet hole left by the front projectile, which will invalidate the score.

India's Singh hit a 10.1 on the first shot and a high ring value of 10.8 on the second.

Not only did Duke not overtake Singh, but fell behind by 0.2 rings.

Poland's Hocella was eliminated in this round, and there were 6 people left on the field:

1, Campriani, 105.3;

2, Mann, 105.0;

3, Jin Changdu, 104.2;

4, Singh, 103.4;

5, Du Ke, 103.2;

6, De Niccolò, 103.1.

Campriani and Mann, who are in the top two, have played very consistently, and the third-place Kim Chang-do has never played a ring value of more than 10.6, but he has not played a ring value of less than 10 rings, and the South Korean Gunners are also stable.

The gap between Singh, Duke, and De Nicolò, ranked 4~6, is very small, and in the third round of double-serve elimination, any of these three are not safe and may be out at any time.

Director Huang was very nervous, and Du Ke hit three good 10 rings in a row in the first set of three basic shots, which was very happy. But who knew that in the next three sets of shots, Du Ke didn't hit a 10.5 ring, and he also hit a 9.7. The third round of elimination began, and Duke was in danger of being out.

Bang! Duke fired a 10.3 in the first shot.

Singh fired a 10.4 in the first shot and suppressed Douc by 0.1.

"The Indian is quite powerful, Duke has to hold on!" Director Huang clenched his fists, he could only cry lonely in his heart, silently cheering for Du Ke.

At this time, the Italian audience erupted in deafening cheers, and the local player De Nicolo played a full ring value of 10.9!

In shooting competitions, especially in this brutal double-shot phase, 10.9 is a rare perfect score.

The 10.9 in the shooting competition is similar to the perfect score of 147 in the snooker competition, no matter which player hits the 10.9 ring, he will definitely win the applause of the audience.

Director Huang's eyebrows were twisted into Sichuan characters, and the old coach who had coached for many years was about to jump out of his throat at this time, Du Ke was chased by the front block, the Indian players blocked the road in front, and the handsome Italian guy chased and even overtook him, the former tiger and the wolf opened his teeth and danced his claws, and Du Ke faced a very dangerous situation.

If Duke can't hit more than 10.6 rings on his second serve, then he is very likely to be out.

It's useless to get the 6th place, and the top three will have Olympic tickets as a gift.

Duke, who was lying on the mat, was naturally under great pressure at this time.

"Whew~" Du Ke took a deep breath, keeping his body absolutely stable, his hands can't tremble, his soul can't be afraid, come on, Lao Tzu just doesn't rely on stunts to make a good 10 rings.

"Hold steady, hold the barrel with your left hand."

"Hold it up, and the shoulder socket should be against the butt of the gun."

"Aim, three points and one line concentric circles, and look for black spots in the crosshairs."

Du Kemo recited the most basic technical essentials of rifle shooting, and then decisively pulled the trigger, and bam!

10.8!

Duke fired a 10.8 ring with his second shot.

"Well done!" Director Huang patted his chest and let out a long breath, this 10.8 was enough to ensure that Duke would continue to stay.

India's Singh fired a 10.2 on the second shot, and after the third round of double shots, his total ring value was 124 rings.

And Duke relied on the last serve of 10.8, surpassing Singh by 0.3 rings, and the total ring value was 124.3.

At this time, the ranking of the six players is:

1, Campriani, 125.9;

2, Mann, 124.9;

3, Jin Changdu, 124.5;

4, Du Ke, 124.3;

5, De Niccolò, 124.1;

6. Singh, 124.0.

India's Singh has not made any major mistakes so far, but no one else can be blamed, at this stage, a good 10 rings of more than 10.5 is enough to determine the difference between heaven and hell, and if you can't play a good 10 rings, you can only say goodbye.

Singh was so depressed that he lost 0.1 rings.

The most depressing thing is that under the new shooting rules, the eliminated players still have to smile and wave to the audience, in order to show the good style of friendship first and competition second.

The Indian player had a bitter face and waved perfunctorily to the spectators' stands, but he couldn't laugh. Then he walked to the coach's seat with heavy steps and sat down beside the coach of his own team.

With a self-redeeming 10.8, Duke kept himself on the court and continued to fight. He is in fourth place for the time being, 0.2 rings behind third-place Kim Chang-do and 0.6 rings behind second-place Mann.

Duke relied on a one-shot 10.8 to reactivate [Desperate], and in the next round of double-serve elimination, he is confident that he will rise one or even two more places to break into the top three positions in one fell swoop. (To be continued.) )
