[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 1068077, member: 4809"] I have never used my Magnetospeed during the load development stage. When shooting ladders and groups, nothing but the bare barrel is used - just like it would be when hunting. There are only a couple of times when I use the magnetospeed: 1) when I think I have found a load/group and want to check my es; 2) after my final load is selected to give me an idea where to start in terms on muzzle velocity while developing a rough drop table. I have noticed the the POI changes more on thinner barrels than bull barrels. That was one of my ahah! moments. I was using it on a new load for my 6.5-06 AI. I wanted to get an idea of velocity. I got what I wanted to know in terms of data, but a nice surprise surfaced when I went to retrieve the target. Although my POI had shifted, my group had tightened up from .75 to .50 MOA. I shot several more groups with and without the Magnetospeed just to make sure. Now all of my rifles wear a Limbsaver deresonator. [/QUOTE]
