As a result, I rarely got a 100 yd reading. 75yd reading came in only half the time. I shot a 22 shot string with my Gibbs 1903a4. I think the movement was throwing it off. For my last 5 shots, I took it off the tripod and just set it on the table. It still moved on recoil, but not as much. The spread of those 5 shots were 1/4 what it was for the same loads and radar on the tripod.
My next trip to the range I'll take a regular tripod with me to sit next to the table, eliminating any bumps.
The notch sight really only allows crude alignment, and I think it needs more to get consistent readings at the farther distances (100yds for 30 cal and up is supposed to be max). I will likely cut the back off a 223 case and tape it to the top on my next trip.
Lastly, before next time...I forgot to take my darn sd card with me. When I got home, I tried and then went searching for a way to transfer the internal memory to the sd card. No dice, it can't be done. Only way to get it off is to go shot by shot and type it in yourself. Should be a simple firmware upgrade to allow copying a series stored internal to the sd card.
I'm not disappointed, I think I just didn't know what to expect.
