Status	Olympic
Location	Wolf Creek Shooting Complex, Atlanta, Georgia
Participants	44 from 31 countries

Wolfram Waibel (AUT) led the preliminary round with 596, leading Artem Khadzhibekov (RUS) and Rob Harbison (USA) by two points. Khadzhibekov had shot 701.5 at the Russian Championships one month before the Olympics, better than the world record, although it could not be recognized because it was not shot in international competition. In the final he took the lead after the fifth shot and won the gold medal by 0.5 points over Waibel. Bronze medalist Jean-Pierre Amat would return five days later to win gold in the small-bore three positions event. Harbison had the worst score the finalists and dropped to seventh place.
