[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 829318, member: 11717"] A chrono is helpful but not essential. You can determine velocity by drops. One of our members who hasn't posted in a while never used a chrono and was quite successful at LR hunting to over 1K. To the OP, we had a shoot in Townsend Montana last month and a few of us got together and fired 4 different loads from 4 different rifles with a Magneto Speed and over an Oehler at the same time. The magneto speed was pretty much dead on, within a couple of FPS of the Oehler. The Magneto Speed will be my next chrono. I have a ProChrono and a Shooting Chrony Alpha. I think the ProChrono is slightly better. The benefits of the Magneto Speed are, very simple and easy to use and light conditions will not affect it unlike all the other optical chronos. It might affect POI slightly but most guys say it doesn't affect accuracy (group size) and no significant POI change. [/QUOTE]
