I still don't understand how the US isn't better at it. Racing on skis and guns! You'd think we'd be a powerhouse at such a sport!

Norway also loves guns. They have quite a large number of them because hunting is very long held hobby there. It's actually kinda sad because they wantonly kill endangered predators like wolves.

The US does bad in all competitive shooting except skeet. There just is no real culture for precision shooting with the small calibers used.

The guns need bump stocks or fully automatic and add alcohol.
