[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2965459, member: 94556"] You make some good points. If you use the Lab Radar to test BCs I strongly recommend that you use the G7 model since it is less sensitive to velocity and not put much credence to data from very high MVs say speeds over 3000 fps. Probably the best velocity range is between 2000-2600 fps. Also each rifle also may give slightly different BC readings for the same bullet. The value of a Lab Radar BC is that that BC more closely approximates the actual BC the shooter sees than that on the box of bullets which in all cases should be used as a starting point to be refined if need be by truing of your data with actual shots taken with that rifle with cool barrel temperatures.
