Mykola Milchev (Ukrainian: Микола Мільчев, born November 3, 1967) is a Ukrainian sports shooter and Olympic Champion. He won Gold medal in Skeet shooting at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney,[1] setting Olympic record with a perfect score of 150, and also tying the world record.

The skeet rules were changed in 2005, removing the old world records, but in May 2009 at the ISSF World Cup in Cairo, Milchev once again achieved a perfect qualification score of 125 to equal the world record.
