    Eggshooterist, we may have to watch SCHallenger so he doesn't get in the deep water. Don't want to lose him for sure! :rofl: :lol:

    If you have a new 201, it is likely an M-tronic. Mine is a 2012 model with a conventional carb & XS! That would be an interesting matchup, no?!

    Would you explain egg shooting? Is it a hobby like skeet shooting? Or do you use eggs as targets instead of tin cans? Or?

    Good morning. Egg shooting....

    I was a member of s shooting club for several years and holding egg shoots for fun and competition was their money maker. Basically it's shooting eggs at 100 yards for 22 long rifle and at 200 and 300 yards for center fire rifles. Each shooter had to shoot 3 sets of 5 grade A Medium eggs for 22 lr and grade A smalls for center fire. Two top scores won cash. If there was a tie there would be a shoot off till someone missed. There was a three way year long competition between three clubs. They buy the eggs directly from an egg producer. The same one that supplies McDonald's in Michigan. The last year I shot they went through 30,000 eggs.

    It was a riot until inter club politics ruined the fun. So we built our own range with large dirt backstops every 100 yards out to 400 and shoot right at home.
