    Fired 3 thru my blaser for a giggle as well and the ES was better but not where it normally is and that went 1.6" top dead center.

    If you enter the recorded velocities for each shot on the calc there is no way they can print groups that tight.

    Blaser had a clean barrel so I would expect a bit of a spread there as it takes 3-5 rounds to foul properly.
    I haven't cleaned the HCR since it arrived.

    Either my new Labradar is not recording the velocities accurately or the groups were a fluke.

    So I am little confused to say the least.

    Did you take into account the wind?
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

    I should have taken a pic but the vertical component is less than the horizontal.

    Shouldn't be that way around going by recorded shot velocities.
    But yeah I did note the wind as poorly as I normally do.
    The HCR is new to me and very accurate for a piece of shit.

    The blaser is shooting a new load I don't have much data for yet but is shooting as well as I come to expect.

    I reloaded the same cases today and will shoot them on a now fouled barrel.

    ES was 32fps (not drastic) and it is normally under 10.
    But as I said, a new load. It did shoot 6 rnds when I first settled on it under 10fps over the V3 but I shot them all on a cold fouled barrel during the warmer months.

    I suspect it could be the powder not the radar.

    I will shoot some of my old loads as a control. If only this weather would settle long enough to get up for a shot
