Romania Alin George won Gold and Italy's Campriani won Silver. Narang kept India in the hunt by finishing third with 598, a point behind world number 1 Niccolo Campriani of Italy. Romania's Moldoveanu Alin George who both shot an Olympic record-equalling 599 to stand first and second in the qualifying round at the Royal Artillery Barracks.
Narang was bang on target from the beginning, scoring two successive 100s, but a 98 in the third series somewhat let him down.
On the other hand, Abhinav Bindra, who won first-ever individual gold medal in the Olympics by an Indian, shot 594 out of 600 to finish a shocking 16th out of 47 competitors. Bindra started with two 99s in the first two series before coming back strongly by getting two perfect 10s for consecutive 100s in the third and fourth rounds.
