Ace shooter Gagan Narang shot his personal best score of 595 in the MQS category of men's 50m rifle prone event at the ISSF World Cup in Milan to qualify for the event at the 2008 Beijing [Images] Olympic Games.
Narang had earlier secured an Olympic quota place in his pet 10 m rifle event by winning the gold medal at the World Cup in China.
With one quota place already in his kitty, Narang needed just the minimum quota score (MQS) to qualify for another category.
He shot a series of 100, 98, 100, 98, 99 and 100 to ensure qualification in the 50m prone event, which he has taken up recently.
