    Worth the effort, they are a great piece of kit
    Muzzleloaders have big balls

    Their site is excellent, very straight forward ordering, no problems with rural delivery. Extremely prompt arrival.
    I have had mixed results with POI shifts. Some barrels have a minimal shift, some barrels do not shift at all.
    I see the shifting as a non issue for my needs vs ease of use.
    I have the V2.

    And if it does ?.....surely you find your most accurate load by shooting groups, settle on one, then chronograph the load to get a speed to develope a drop chart, then finally set your scope zero at whatever range you choose ? ...... a slight POI change whilst chronying the load....does it matter??
    Looks a good bit of kit, less leads, parts, no tripod etc.

    From what I can see it is the v1 bayonet with a new display. The Xfr model will connect to smart phone with an app and will display the info mv es sd. Display will do the same. Will accept a smaller barrel diameter and muzzle brake length than the v3 but it'll work for me. I've ordered one through my youshop. $300 nzd to my door for the few times I'll use it! Hopefully $50 usd less for taking part in this survey?

    True, as long as it's not too heavy it shouldn't change harmonics enough to change the grouping. Variability in velocity can contribute to accuracy so I tend to chrono and group my ammo at the sane time. As long as POI stays on paper it wont matter. OK so I would like to try one, the lack of tripod etc sound good.
