[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 966304, member: 50867"] OK, Tod. I've run the tests and in my experience the groups [U]can [/U]vary depending on how the mechanism is attached to the rifle. HOWEVER, the chrono's job is to read velocities, not to support or improve accuracy. I use my MagnetoSpeed chrono to check the MV of a load that's already developed for accuracy. The MV, ES and SD information may cause me to make some adjustments but I always go back to the chrono for the follow-up MV data. Also, because faster is not necessarily better, I don't worry about lower velocity loads that still group nicely out beyond 800 yards. If the shooter pays attention to detail and mounts the chrono correctly, the group results will be consistent (with the chrono mine typically print about 1.5 - 2 MOA higher than without it but the comparative spread on target is essentially unchanged) with or without the chrono attached to the muzzle.
