мишень
Искусственная цель для стрельбы. На соревнованиях по биатлону линия мишеней располагается параллельно огневому рубежу. Размер мишеней зависит от положения спортсмена при стрельбе. При стрельбе лежа диаметр мишени составляет 45 мм. При стрельбе стоя — 115 мм. В биатлоне используются металлические и бумажные мишени. На соревнованиях разрешены только металлические, а для пристрелки винтовок используются только бумажные. На тренировках применяются оба вида мишеней.
