What is the shooting proficiency test for big game hunters?
Every norwegian hunter who wants to hunt for big game (amongst others moose, red deer, fallow deer, wild reindeer and roe deer with rifle) has to do an annual shooting test. For the test the hunter has to do 30 documented training shots (minimum 15 shots during two days). Additionally, 5 shots with hunting ammunition on a fixed deer target from a distance of at least 100 m have to be done. All the shots have to hit the target within an inner circle of 30 cm. For the test you have to use the same rifle as you use during the hunt. The shooting test is arranged by departments of Det Frivillige Skyttervesen and Norges Jeger- og Fiskerforbund. Usually a fee is charged for the test. Please note that everybody who wants to hunt with krafjorden Jakt has to have the confirmation of the successfully taken shooting test with them. Foreign residents are exempt from the shooting proficiency test provided they satisfy the requirements for big-game hunting in their country of residence. Documentary p
