[QUOTE="Korhil78, post: 1075199, member: 34818"] Like others have said, I would not trust that chronograph. If it was cloudy or the sun wasn't high enough in the morning yet, it will do crazy things to the lower end chronos. If you are not gonna buy a higher end chrono then take that load and shoot it at 300-500 yards and see how it does and use your chrono to get a base velocity even though it may not be correct, it will get you in the ball park velocity. You can then get your velocity figured out based on drops out to 1000 yards. Not as precise or easy as getting a quality chrono like a magneto speed but it will work. You don't have to stop verifying at 1k either. The further out you verify, the more precise you will be. [/QUOTE]
