Way too slow frame speed, mine is 30 frames per second.  Each frame is 1/30 of a second apart or 0.033 seconds.  In that amount of time, a bullet traveling 2500 fps would travel 83 feet.

I have a MagnetoSpeed Sporter.  It is easy to use and works great, gives repeatable results and I've never had it not record a shot.

The only downside is your POI changes so if you are needing to zero your scope you have to take it off.  I only use it for the first stages of load development so it's not an issue.

 :yeah: 100%

I’ve had a few miss reads. The simplicity and the convenience of not having it adjust screens or hitting screens is priceless🤪🤪🤪😂😂😂😉🥃🇺🇸
Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

Same here.... everyone is out... from what I hear, it's a chip shortage issue, imagine that.  :(

I won an Oehler 35P at an IPSC/USPSA shoot about 1992 or so.  Still going strong, and have who knows how many projectiles launched through it.  It is a bit of a pain to set up, but I have an old tripod that is dedicated to it, and as I do most of my shooting out back of the house, it's just a matter of packing the whole thing out to the bench and back.  It's had everything from bullets to arrows, baseballs,, and even golf balls (broke a sky screen doing that) ran through it.  Also, it always makes me smile when the manufacturer of the latest/greatest new chrono uses the 35p to calibrate against.  That being said, I'd LOVE to have a Labradar!
