Magnetospeed

[ILVTOHT]

Just used my Magnetospeed sporter for the first time. I really like it!

I have a question though. Do you have to push the button before the first shot or something? I just strapped it on and shot... my first reading was #1 3215,
#2 3248, #3 3250, #4 3245.
first reading really messed up my average, SD, and ES. I'm trying to figure out why...

Was your first shot on a clean barrel?

No.
Fouled barrel, but the first shot of the day.

Cold bore can affect this!

First shot was clean next shots the barrel was fouledAs said above possibly cold ?

The first reading is what it is.

There's your answer.
Its a bit like when you do load development, I always fire a few shots just to bring everything up to operating temperature so to speak, cool down slightly then start.
But once I have the load I then check my cold bore shot POI.

I like the Magneto speed, but just remember it will shift your POI as well.

Get a mount like this from wiser Percision it does not mount to the barrel and will not affect your point of impact

That's very cool actually, Im keen but will see if they will post to Australia?
It also gets you post only being able to use the sporter on 1 inch barrels!

How does it attach to the rifle? And how expensive is it?

Looks like it attaches to a rail or an atlas bipod?

I now group all my chrono data into three categories: clean and cold, dirty and cold, and dirty and warm. Dirty = fouled. This approach helps me to better understand my data and apply it in the field.

It attached to my atlas rail on the front of my stock and about 100 bucks

I just bought one and fitted it to my rifle, looking forward to trying it out at the range. It came very quickly, and everything appears to fit well and be of good quality. The carbon fiber rod that allows adjustment to different length barrels is extremely long, but although it looks a little funny and will probably draw comments from guys at the range, it works fine on my 24" 6.5CM and will be fine on my 30" 224V.
