The men's 50 metre team small-bore rifle (originally called team competition, miniature-rifle) was a shooting sports event held as part of the Shooting at the 1912 Summer Olympics programme. It was the first appearance of the event, though a mixed-distance team small-bore rifle event had been held in 1908. The competition was held on Wednesday, 3 July 1912.[1]

Twenty-four sport shooters from six nations competed.
