    Hornady apparent use a radar capable of measuring 600yds down range. Made be the same company that is producing LabRadar but the Hornady unit is massively more powerful than the LabRadar.

    Other facts:
    Litz thinks highly of the LabRadar and sells them.
    Litz has just had a tussle with Hornady over their Hornady 4 DOF Ballistics Calculator.
    Hornady are putting great stead on their BCs verified by their radar.
    I have never believed a lot of manufacturers' high BCs (including Hornady's) and have relied on Litz to come along with real life proven data - I guess what the OP was after here.
    When will Litz do the goods on ELDs - that's a good question given his paper he wrote attacking their calculator. If he is a nasty guy he would seek to disprove the claimed BC figures. He may have already done the analysis and has not published. Something that could happen if the BCs prove to be correct. I also don't think he is a nasty type.
