Great. I still own my labradar because I like the interface better when I'm going to do a lot of something like load development but you just cannot beat the Garmin for convenience. It literally lives in my range bag in an old eotech box that I recut the foam for.
I've had one since they first came out . . . ~2 years ago. There was a couple software hiccups reported to start with, though I never had a single issue since I got mine. Previously, I had a MagnetoSpeed, which I tested my Garmin against and also with the popular LabRadars that some shooting buddy's have. My Garmin was as accurate as any of them. Besides being very accurate and very reliable, it's the conveniences that really stands out (small-easy to store away, easy and quick to set up, menu operation easy to use). It connects easily with the phone app where you can manage the data. It's a well done tool.
That is good to hear, I sold my other magneto and liked the off barrel options with no cables. Is it using Applied Ballistic data?
That's what I thought but saw something about the ballistics being shared with the watch
There are huge threads on here about this product...just use the search function using Garmin as the search variable and click titles only....tons of info on the site.

Appreciate it,
Tried it and looked but didn't see the very basic answer to my question.
Answer is yes. They are reliable and accurate and hundreds on here already use them.
Basic Answer provided in my post just above this one.
Have one, yes/yes, and it's incredible.
Labradar you can pull more detailed information if you know what you're doing, but the sheer convenience of the Garmin is impossible to top. The MV on pistol and rifle has been within a few fps when I tested them against each other.
Thanks, I was hoping for those results, I really liked the simplicity of using it.
Thanks everyone
Thanks everyone
I bought a Garmin a month or two ago and sold my LabRadar last weekend. I'm lovin' the Garmin - mostly due to size. The operation firmware does have some funky actions but generally easy to use.
I was happy to find that the data now downloads into an Excel file and any number of sessions can be downloaded at once into just one file (used to have to do it into individual files downloaded separately) and when more than one is selected for download, each session is separated and labeled onto separate tabs of the Excel file.
Wow they put thought into thatI was happy to find that the data now downloads into an Excel file and any number of sessions can be downloaded at once into just one file (used to have to do it into individual files downloaded separately) and when more than one is selected for download, each session is separated and labeled onto separate tabs of the Excel file.
