Lennart Hannelius took part in the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris , where he competed at 25 m with the rapid fire pistol . Together with seven other competitors, he initially achieved the maximum number of points of 18 hits, so that there were several jump-offs afterwards. He survived four of these rounds before he was eliminated, which he lined up in third place and thus won the bronze medal behind Henry Bailey and Vilhelm Carlberg . Five years later, at the World Championships in Stockholm, he and the team won the bronze medal on the running deer in both single and double shots.
