[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1362374, member: 77249"] A chronograph is an eye opener. The first time I dealt with a chronograph was at a range several years ago. A guy there was testing some new loads. When done he asked if we wanted to shoot our rifles over it. My brother shot his 338 WM over it. Every so often he would have a shot drop about 4 inches low right out of the group at 100 yds. The chronograph told the story of the drop shot. Brothers load was 225 gr. bullet at 29?? fps then this one shot went 27?? fps. Shot hit 4 inches low right. Traced it to bad primers and changed primers, Urika. Went and bought me a chronograph in a couple months and I like to shoot through it. Now I take my chronograph to the range and shoot through it a lot, Especially when changing powder or primer lots.
