[QUOTE="scpaul, post: 2792620, member: 76393"] [B]it won't tell you how much velocity you are gaining or losing, but you could load 2 sets of rounds as identical as possible except 1 group crinped. Shoot the target with the same hold and see if the crimped group prints higher. I would let the barrel cool between groups. If you pick up much velocity I would think the group would be higher. Be sure to watch for pressure if you are even remotely close to a max load. I agree with the others, if you are serious, you need a chronograph. I have 2 just in case. Some aren't very expensive and work surprisingly well.[/B] [/QUOTE]
