Egg Shoot: I ran across a reference to an egg shoot. Now I can't remember which periodical it was in; not Precision Shooting because I ran over all of the articles on ranges. Anyhow, what they do is use an egg shoot as a side contest for amusement to the 1000 yards shoot. You shoot at an egg suspended by a string at 500 yards. No benches, any position you may choose. It didn't say if sandbags or forend rests were allowable, or if the egg was raw. I assume it would be so a hit would be more obvious.
No prizes ae awaarded; only the applause of fellow shooters and spectators. If I run across the article again, I will post where it occurred.
