** Swap

Note: Athletes qualify their nation, not themselves. However, an athlete can only earn one quota place. If the same athlete finishes first at a subsequent qualifying event, the quota place is awarded to the nation of the next highest finisher who has not already earned a quota place. Nations may "swap" quota places between 2 events, IE give up a quota in one event in exchange for another event where they didn't earn a quota, subject to availability of time and space at the range.
