[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 727415, member: 25383"] there is still a small (really very slight) problem with shooting thru more than one chronograph in tandem. The cells are not in the same place, and the projectile is either gaining or loosing velocity as it travels. Now I know we are picking it apart here, but it's just a matter of fact. Another factor is that to do a seriously good test on a unit of one kind or another you normally have to have a minimum of three identical units to caompair to. I doubt any of us have that. (in otherwords three Pacts, three Ohler 35's, or whatever). No mixed bags here. Otherwise all data is just in theory with nothing down in concrete. It's not all that hard to do, but the next problem is that most chrongraphs have a limited range they'll read thru. The only chronographs I've ever messed with are Ohlers and Pacts in the shooting world. (have used many others in industrial uses). I just don't worry too much about .0025% difference, and I've notice that if one thru the shot out the other did as well. Good enough for me. gary [/QUOTE]
