It might break the targets.

I used to shoot with a Gamo CFX and the targets shatters if you shoot the edges

But I guess you have Open Sight competition within the state and district level in India.

I am sure other members can throw more insights

Are these kinds of rifles, which will do somewhere around 1000 fps allowed in open sight competitions?

any Indian of foreign make spring piston air rifles without any after-market modifications can be used for 10 mts open sight competitions & the event is conducted only up to state level competitions

NO.....

Opensight category has been removed from all levels except for school students in interschool competitions and a D350 is too powerful to be allowed. It will damage target equipment beyond repair.
