Richard Schatz dusts rock at 2,000 @ Cheytac

DASHER DOME
Gold $$ Contributor
Sir Richard Schatz spent a couple of nights at the Dasher Dome after the Nationals in Memphis.
Sunday evening went to the range and Junebug dropped by with his 338 Improved. He had some rounds for fireforming and after shooting a very tight group he said he was going for the 800 yard egg and he got it on first shot. Then Richard took a couple of sighters and put a bullet through the egg hole in the 800 yard egg plate. Then Shayne took out an egg with his Eagle dasher.

Next Richard and I loaded into the gator and went up on Rocky Top to the 2,000 yard line with the Cheytac. I took the first 3 shots and and all three were close. Richard took the wheel and diale her in. Every shot was very close. It was pretty windy as a rain front was on it's way. But remarkably every shot was good on windage. Each shot was sending up a dust cloud or splash. Richard was closer inching closer with every shot. His 5th shot was almost touching but still dirt splash. Then with the last shell chambered, shot #6 was on it's way.
I waited and waited and then I saw a puff of white limestone dust.
Richard looked around and said he did not see any dirt splash. I told him that there was only white
dust off the limestone rock.
