[QUOTE="Shootin4fun, post: 853683, member: 28741"] Heavier barrel = less of an effect; makes sense and what I would expect. My tubes are all sporters at this point... and if the powder shortage keeps up, I'm not buying any more rifles! Interesting, I don't see small variations (+/- 5f ps) in velocity making a significant difference downrange. My shooting ability or wind makes a bigger diff. I use my Chrony about 12+' in front of muzzle so velocity is virtually the same as at the muzzle. Certainly close enough for ballistic tables to be right on. I don't get very many error readings but yes, when they happen they throw the statistics off...must calc manually and omit those but not a big deal. Ease of use and not dependent on lighting seem like the strongest arguments to use a Magneto, especially if you're forced to shoot at a regulated range...my main one is not, its in the forest, but city ranges, ugh, setting up a unit in front of the firing line is a pain.
