The United States swept the medals in this event, led by Larry Nuesslein. The three American medalists all used their scores from the team event. Most of the foreign shooters used the heavy Schützen rifle, but Nuesslein used a Winchester musket with Pope barrel and set triggers. Arthur Rothrock and Dennis Fenton used Stevens rifles with set triggers.
