[QUOTE="C1Pro, post: 2022750, member: 33074"] My first Chorongraph was the Oehler 33, purchased around 1976. Not only clocked my hand loads but also did some testing for a writer for Guns & Ammo. About ten years ago, just before the Lab Radar came out I purchased the Oehler 35P. The unit has with 3 Sky Screens to take two velocity readings, for each shot, and lets you verify the accuracy between these readings. When they agree, you know they are right. If the readings disagree significantly on a single shot, you know that sometimes the conditions and surroundings can fool a chronograph, so the 35P will let you know. When I test loads, I test speed as well as group size on paper and document everything. For this reason the Magneto Speed isn't my choice because of barrel harmonics. This summer I clocked shot shell loads for many members at out sportsman's club, something the Lab Radar can't do. I will admit, I am interested in a Lab Radar and as soon as soon as I feel I can trust it, will purchase one just because of set-up time and saving strings memory card. [/QUOTE]
