[QUOTE="D.ID, post: 737390, member: 14340"] I have given up on chronographs all together. Between set up and alignment, unreliable or worse yet just inaccurate readings, I'm done. I thought about buying a more expensive one but came to the conclusion: gravity and repeatability do not lie, always give a reading and since I have to test for both anyway. I am done wasting time and ammo over a chrono. I have stepped back to the old fashion method of testing my loads at distance. It works in any weather, in any lighting and the results are confident. With todays ballistic computers and there simple ability to establish velocity based on proven known factors in known conditions and then modify it appropriately for other conditions. I have no love or use for the chronograph. My opinion based on my experience, good luck. [/QUOTE]
