Every shooter fired 10 shots with points from 0 to 5 (5 was the best) so a maximum of 50 points was possible. The scores of the four shooters on each team were summed to give a team score. No further shooting was done. The maximum score was 200.

Czechoslovakia was allowed to compete with an incomplete team; only one shooter participated.

The new Olympic champion in the individual competition John Boles finished third with the American team. While the bronze medalist from the individual competition Otto Olsen was able to win the gold medal with his Norwegian team.
