I have had this MagnetoSpeed V3 for over a year. I used it a few times and put it up for almost a year. Got it out yesterday to chrono a few rifles. It was as easy to set up and use as It was a year ago.

I'm amazed at the ease of use and the ability to collect velocity data almost anywhere, anytime.

I kept notes on the spacer set up from last year. I used the same spacers and checked alignment with the rod. Alignment was confirmed, I was shooting and collecting data.

I forgot a spare battery. When I started reading the instructions I learned that I could substitute cr123 batteries. I have several packs of those to power my flashlight and thermal weapon sight. Luckily, I did not have to resort to that as the original battery was still good.

A few minutes with the instructions, a few minutes of set up and I was gathering data.

This is a good review of the Magnetospeed.

Velocity data without shooting a sky screen? Without pissing off the RO by standing in front of an unloaded rifle allignning the sky screens with the muzzle? Without knocking over the sky screens from your big bore muzzle blast? Cool!!!

Anyone have comparisons of loads they've fired across a Magnetospeed and other chrono(s)? Same results? Deviations?

One of my shooting partners who shoots with me compared his numbers to the Magnetospeed and they were pretty much the same. We did this over a year ago when I first picked the Magnetospeed up

Check out this YouTube video where he compares the Magnetospeed to another Chronograph. He doesn't really compare loads but the devices themselves.
