SHOOTING: For those who don't like fishing, there's a quirky and enjoyable sport to witness tomorrow and Sunday.

It's the Gladstone Grand Slam International Practical Shooting Confederation event to be held at the Raglan Target Sports Association.

Organiser Tony Bryce said a total of 40 competitors from as far as Gold Coast to Townsville will shoot in what is a high-paced sport.

"It's an exciting and safe sport where shooters complete eight stages across the weekend," he said.

"Each stage is where the targets are steel or paper and shooters also have to negotiate obstructions.

"Some targets move and it's an 'A' if they hit the centre and 'B' and 'C' if they hit anywhere else."

The event will also have some shooters who competed on the world stage in France.

Competition starts from 1-6pm tomorrow and then 8am to about lunchtime on Sunday.
