[QUOTE="camdog, post: 661785, member: 49119"] meatyrem, yes I am familiar w/ chrony to a certain degree. Ballistics are very important part of my muzzleloading. The chrony is set close as to never hit the thing w, your projectile. The sabot portion of the test is past tense as the reading will take the first thing through. I would keep it level and approx. 3 to 5 feet in front of the muzzle. Thats what there talking about when they talk FPS at the muzzle, and of course then 50 yards, 100 yards fps and so on.
