The team event was contested separately from the individual event. The best individual score was by Konni Huber (FIN), who had won a silver medal in the individual event. But the United States won the gold medal, scoring 363 total, led by individual bronze medalist, Frank Hughes, who hit 92 clays. They led after every stage, although narrowly. Canada and Finland tied for second place with 360, but Canada won the silver medal in a barrage.
