labradar false readouts

[Rum and not the liquid]

hi all

i went to the range the other day to work on a sub sonic load for my 458 socom, im running 475gn peregrine subs over lil gun. my question is my labradar was spiting out speeds of 3000 + anyone have any idea whats going on? i could also watch the bullet travel down eange from my scope which leads me to belive it isnt going 3k+

What velocity profile do you have it set for?

 

[Rum and not the liquid]

I've got it on rifle

 

[kiwikid]

The rifle profile is designed for 1600 fps to 3900 fps. Since your loads are subsonic you may need to try the handgun profile (600-1600 fps)
Also do you have the Trigger Source set to Trigger or Doppler?

 

[Rum and not the liquid]

Ah cool I did wonder if there was a fps range. I have it set to Doppler

 

[kiwikid]

The instructions for the use of Doppler are rather confusing. It says to use it for heavy, slow projectiles and then says not to use it for firearms.

Hahaha sweet thanks

Hahaha sweet thanks

Now you can have some rum (the liquid) and have fun. Sorry, I could not resist.

Yep, that's your issue.

Get a recoil trigger and eliminate the head aches. I use mine exclusively with the trigger and it works flawlessly.
