I really don't want to fight with a chronograph needing the right light or take a chance on putting a bullet through one.

I do see the value but am stuck between Magneto Speed and a Lab Radar.

They are both expensive and the Lab Radar is only about 150 more than the Magneto Speed.

I will probably use the hell out of either one for 6 months to a year but only occasionally after that.

I want to shoot groups and test velo and you can't shoot reliable groups with the sensor hanging on the end of your barrel.

Does a ladder test only measuring MV really work?

I also really want a Dillon Progressive press and the 3 to 500 really sets that back.

Maybe I should just buy an old school light activated chrono??? And suffer through the hassle.

Really not sure what I should do here. I understand the need but not the process. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.
