International Steel Shooters Association

Simply put, the competitor will be presented with between 1 and 5 targets with one of them designated as a “Stop” plate. The difficulty in International Steel is not the size or positioning of the target but the speed with which the competitor tries to achieve. Each competitor will usually shoot up to 5, Five shot strings with their slowest time eliminated. His or her score is the total time for the remaining fastest strings, after penalties are assessed.
