International Shooting Sport Federation: A string of consistent final appearances and two standout gold medal performances powered India to a commendable and strong third-place finish at the International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) World Cup (Rifle/Pistol) Munich 2025. It was a strong performance at one of the most competitive and popular events in the world of international rifle and pistol shooting.
Held at the iconic Olympic Shooting range between June 8-15, the Munich World Cup saw India register their third top-three finish this year in four world cups, with two gold and two bronze medals.

“The Munich World Cup which is an annual feature of the International Shooting calendar and is held at the revered Olympic Shooting range, which hosted the sport at the 1972 Munich Olympics, has once again brought out the best in our rifle and pistol shooters,” said an overjoyed K.
