1. 5 medals (1 in each shotgun shooting event), 2 of them being gold (the women have definitely more chances than the men/mixed I guess, especially Diana Bacosi in the Skeet)

 

2.  by margin, then it's a close call between many teams like  and possibly also  and  (not counting completely out the , also because of their shotgun specialists)

1. 3 medals.

A Gold for Sift Kaur Samra in women's 50m rifle 3 positions. 1 silver in mixed 10m air pistol team. 1 bronze for Aishwary Pratap Tomar in men's  50m rifle 3 position.

But the truth is we can any number of medals in any event. We have potential medallists in all disciplines. I am just hoping we can handle pressure and win some medals. 

 

2. Obviously  at the top. And I agree with the above comment that , ,  and should be among the countries in top 3. I see underperforming.

 

3. Sift Kaur Samra(Ind) obviously - she is so cheerful - and the Chinese no 1s in the pistol Jiang Ranxin and Zhang Bowen

1. 0 medals, but maybe we’ll have a chance if all the other athletes get handicaps (shooting at a 50m range for the 10m air pistol*, and at a 100m range for the 50m rifle 3 positions) 

2.  first (obviously), then  … can’t trust  to perform at their best given their massive flop in Tokyo (for what it’s worth, I have them finishing in 5th behind France)

3. Well I rarely watch shooting, but I did watch some of the trap events at Tokyo, I’m a huge fan of  Alessandra Perlii

Agreed. We have a few medal contenders but I will try to assume they don't exist. Even I can't trust them. Hoping for like 2 medals in women's rifle and/or pistol.
