[QUOTE="JKPhoto, post: 2436342, member: 119271"] There is a learning curve to the LabRadar unit in terms of aiming it properly. There are devices that can be purchased to assist in this. There is also a possibility of the LabRadar getting confused by multiple guns firing at a range, especially of someone is at the next position. An external trigger can be utilized to eliminate this annoyance. Using a smartphone with the LabRadar app makes using the unit much more intuitive/easier. It really is 100% reliable when used in this fashion per my experiences. With that said, due to the fact that I have to travel about 1.25 hours to 100+ yard range, I also own a Magneto-Speed Sporter, which I use to go to an indoor 25 yard range that is 15 minutes away to do a pressure/ velocity test for a new powder/load with no targets involved. The Sporter has proven to be 100% reliable as well once proper spacing for the bullet flight path above the sensor has been established. I have compared readings on both on the same bullet/shot and find them within 1-5fps of each other. [/QUOTE]
