The People's Republic of China finished atop of the overall medal standings of the event, with two Gold and five Silver medals. Serbia placed in second, with two Gold and one Silver, thanks to the last-minute victory of Nemanja Mirosavljev at the 50m Rifle 3 Positions Men final, the last match of the event.
