Not allowed, rule 6.7.4.2
The use of any special devices, means or clothing, including the use of Kinesio,
medical or similar taping, which immobilizes or unduly reduces the movement of
the athlete's legs, body or arms, is prohibited for Rifle, Pistol and Running Target
athletes in order to ensure that athletes’ performance skills are not artificially
improved.

Re: Back support belt OK?
Hmm...that's one I'd argue. Especially considering the degree of support provided by rifle jackets, trousers, and boots.
