Is anyone following the shooting events in the Olympics? NBC's website has some pretty good coverage. Check it out here.

You can even watch replays of full events online. Here is the replay of the men's Free Pistol Final.

Here is the current medal count.

If you check the coverage, the shooting sports air live from 1am EST to 4 or 5am EST. They cover it like a chess match. I watched the mens free pistol. They are shooting 22's at 50 meters. They mounted a camera that runs across the floor in front of the shooters to catch the action. Unfortunately, it seems to distract the shooters and they tend to lay their gun down when the camera is coming by.

I guess the US is doing well in trap and skeet.
