300 m Standard Rifle is one of the ISSF shooting events. It is similar to 300 m Rifle but there are more restrictions on the rifle (quite similar to those in 10 m Air Rifle). The course of fire is a Three positions program of 3x20 shots. This event is based in competitions with army-style rifles, and as such dates back at least to the 19th century, although the early championships had a true Army Rifle event, using the model of the host country's choice. The Standard Rifle event as such was created in 1947.
300 m Standard Rifle is also on the program of the CISM military world championships.
