[QUOTE="Eaglet, post: 229677, member: 3756"] jmden, I see what you're saying and does make sense. Theoretically it would work, the pain comes in when you start playing with it; ex: 4 yards = 12 ft, set the chronograph at 12ft, if your reading is 3000 ft/sec your chart table would have to read at a distance of 4 yards 3000 ft/sec; then you look at the zero line and what ever it says that should be without doubt your corrected muzzle velocity. I tried to go to the motions using different programs and found it kind of painful. Most of us including you would probably hate to be frustrated after a while because you eventually would have to keep changing muzzle velocities at 0 yards until at 4 yards it matches the chronograph velocity. Not to mention that most programs are not willing to give you that info at 4 yards. It does work though!!! [/QUOTE]
