Sportlövészet is the Hungarian term for sport shooting. It encompasses a wide range of competitive shooting disciplines that test accuracy, precision, and control. Athletes typically use firearms such as rifles, pistols, or shotguns to hit stationary or moving targets at various distances. The sport is governed by international federations like the International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF), which sets the rules and organizes major competitions.

There are many different disciplines within sport shooting, each with its own unique equipment and techniques. Common categories include rifle shooting, where competitors aim for small targets at long distances, and pistol shooting, which involves shooting at different types of targets from a set distance. Shotgun sports, such as trap and skeet, involve shooting at clay targets launched into the air.

Sport shooting requires immense concentration, a steady hand, and a deep understanding of the equipment. Training often involves developing proper breathing techniques, trigger control, and mental discipline. It is an Olympic sport, with various shooting events featured in the Summer Games, attracting athletes from around the globe who strive for Olympic medals. The sport promotes safety and responsibility in handling firearms.
