    A quick Crony test

    I went to the long range today as the short one is closed due to fire risk

    The long range is a 90-95 km round trip, much further than the shot range

    My new Magneto Speed 2 Crony showed up yesterday so I thought it would be a good idea to try it out.
    I pre-ordered it just before the Accoustic ones showed up......bugger or not....

    I thought it would be a good idea as I could use it when ever I wanted ie shooting rocks way up a hill, etc.

    As you can see by the photos sometimes it's a real misson setting up a crony depending where you are shooting.

    I had the Magneto Speed on the muzzle, then I dusted off the F1 (that I haven't used since I got the 35P) & put it in front of the Oehler.

    The speeds were a bit erractic as I expected, different loads & it was in the bright Nelson sun

    I was shooting a 6.5-284 over them.

    MS.......F1.....35P
    2920....2949....2959
    2969....2962....2961
    2840....2814....2813
    2845....2842....2837
    2855....2854....2850
    2870....2876....2861

    They all were pretty close with the 140s

    The 300s out of the Edges were a different story, I didn't use the MS only the F1 & 35P & only recorded a few of the starting loads.

    F1.......35P
    2754....2736
    2756....2740
    2750....2731
    2757....2732






    & just to make a good day even better the 3 rifles behaved themselves nicely especially the new Edges
