Dear Mr. Furber,
After watching a few air rifle events and shooting at a range with electronic targets perhaps I can help. In air rifle a perfect shot is 10.9 and one can have a shot that cuts the dot which is a 10.1. As a result a score like 209.4 is possible. Not knowing which event you are referring to I hope that provided you with some helpful information.

What score is 209.4? How am I supposed to understand a scoring system that is not a full point value? Would be nice to have an explanation. Better yet would be a change from the current complicated decimal scoring to a more spectator friendly score.

ISSF are you listening?
