The Australian pistol and rifle teams will have their penultimate chance to impress national selectors when the 2012 Milan World Cup commences this evening (May 15).

With athletes set to be nominated to the Australian Olympic Committee following the conclusion of the next World Cup in Munich (May 23-27), Australia’s 15-member team will all target strong performances in Italy.

Following a bronze medal in the men’s 3 position rifle at the Pilsen Grand Prix in the Czech Republic last week, Dane Sampson (QLD) will aim to continue his excellent form.
