    Range Report 175 gr .308 Lapua Scenar-L

    Looks like your last 6 shot group is good to keep. At 2680 fps you are good to 1000 and its easier on the brass, gun, and your shoulder.

    Problems with Magnetospeed V3

    What is the distance from the sensors to the BOTTOM of bore? This is important. I set mine to no more than an 1/8" and make sure that it level with the bore. On some rifles I have had to us a piece of 1/16" thick rubber at the front of the mount to level the sensors.

    Advanced Marksmanship crazy shots!!!! lets hear about them...

    Shooting in the desert a few years ago with a buddy of mine we decided to have a contest to see who could hit a golf ball on a tee at 50 yards and leave the tee intact. This was shooting a 7" 44 magnum revolver. I must say that I never mix alcohol and shooting and my Bud had put his guns away...

    Length to Ogive

    Every bullet has a different ojive dimension where it will contact the lands. A SMK verses a Berger verses a Scenar . I hope I am reading and understanding your post. Using one type of bullet set at a particular base to ojive and then using a different bullet can get you into trouble if you are...

    Range Report How accurate is your chrono??--

    I have the Magneto Speed V2 and have found the MV readings to be so close to actual field data from 100 to 1000 yards that I trust it completely.
