Yesterday was not a very good day. We got good atmospheric data - or so I thought. We had both a Kestrel and Sig 2400ABS running. If the Sig "corrects" the data to sea level like your post from yesterday describes Kestrel doing, then none of it may be valid.
The worst problem is that we had two rifles. 15 recorded shots on rifle #1, 12 on rifle #2. There were a lot of shots the Labradar did not pick up. Even worse, on the 12 shots it did pick up from my rifle #2, only two measurements picked up 100 yard velocity and none picked up anything further. All captured muzzle and 50 yard velocity.
So the questions are;
Are you familiar with the 2400ABS measurement of atmospheric pressure and is it actual or corrected pressure?
If corrected can the data be used given the elevation is known?
Is muzzle velocity and 50 yard velocity only of any use to you?
Edit to add, all shots were with Hornady .338 285 gr. ELD-M out of two rifles with slightly different twist. Labradar is not mine. If the data is of any use to you, it might take a few days to obtain.
