[QUOTE="DonLR, post: 2434042, member: 122134"] ELR shooting is a precise sport when taken seriously. I have made hits on a 12 inch diameter tgt at 1200 yds with 28 nosler and am working up my weatherby with the 150 ablr to do same. I have used three types of chronographs and they all have their quirks. I now prefer the lab radar. There are some very good you tube videos that have really helped improve the lab radar function for me at the range. I am surprised the guys at the range don’t have a chronograph so you can get your real velocity. I seriously doubt that if the book load is 2900 fps thst you are getting anywhere near 3000 fps. I do recommend the labradar but you have to be dedicated to it. It is not as easy a set up as the old sky screens but then with it you don’t have to worry about lighting conditions and bullet glint and screen spacing. My app shows about a 20 inch difference in drop at 1000 yds with the 150 ablr with the change from 2900 fps to 3000 fps. Depending on what size your 1000 yd target is that may or may not make a difference in hits. When you start shooting at 1000 yd moa targets it obviously makes a difference. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
