Ummm ... egg salad sandwiches!

194 years? That's a great record.

 

[sailor38]

I'll be there. Lot of fun last year!

Just bring some mayonnaise ,green onions salt and pepper and a straw (gotta pick up the egg kills somehow) and rnr.
Showin up's ok but wouldn't be a bad idea to contact Paul and letem know you're coming.
Want to be sure he brings
1. enough eggs
2. enough sausages for lunch
As it's scheduled a little later than previous years ,eggs could be a little frozen and may need a little more energy to break em
Keep in mind....the firepoint is covered so match will be shot whatever the weather (almost) and will be shot off benches unless you prefer to be prone on concrete.
We generally continue running relays until 1.ALL eggs are gone and more cannot be had or 2. No more shooters wanting to continue.
There isn't a semi auto class (yet) but anyone is welcome to try with a semi.
The TCRC Egg Shoot has always been a lot of fun for those that have attended.It goes back a longggg way and as far as we can figure this is our 194th
Hope to see some of you regulars there and as well some new faces.

Last year was a lot of fun. The wind snakes were dancing something FIERCE. See ya'll on the 19th.

 

[ProdigyS10]

BACK TO TOP
Just a bump and reminder that this is coming up this month.Hopefully you can make it and have dropped Paul W an email to let him know you are coming and to be sure he buys enough eggs.

 

[JRW (QOR)]

I have a meeting to go to in the AM, wouldn't be able to get there until 1pm, would that be OK?

 

[Guy JR]

Is there a chance to take a couple sighters at 300 the mourning of the shoot?

 

[doemaster]

The other times there was plenty of time before the shoot for your sighters .
Enjoyable shoot but this year it falls during deer rifle for me .
Have fun and watch the eggs vaporize .

 

[ONT0001]

Paul will be allowing (and I recommend taking advantage of) a sight in period before the match.
This will give everyone the opportunity to confirm comeups and get an idea of how the windsnakes run.
Should be as always a fun match.

The Egg Shoot went pretty well and what a whole lot of fun. mut some new people and some really cool toys.

The winners were

The custom class shooting a 6mmbr Paul W 18/20
The factory class shooting a 204 Alex 16/20

congrats to the winners.

One thing i did find out about this years is you need to pair up or bring a partner. There was a few occasions eggs would be broken and but the shot just nicked it at 300 but the shell remained. Nothing like having to burn a 2nd shot at 300 only to find out you hit it the first time.

the eggs in close were vapourized pretty cool

Thanks to everyone for putting the event on
Paul Jimmy, the cook, and Ont001
