    I've tried tilting it and wow, my Hornet suddenly does 5500 fps! ;D

    I'm not quite familiar with it yet, but it certainly is more user-friendly in a dark environment like mine. Really like the quick setup and pack size, but I have not yet determined accuracy. A 50 shot average put my Hornet loads to 747 msec (I think it was?) which was the same as the Shooting Chrony said.

    Another mistake I do in this film is placing the acoustic chronograph behind the Chrony - this means sound shadow can affect the accuracy. I'll switch them around next attempt. According to the manufacturer, using the level bubble isn't critical, the important thing is to get the aim PARALLELL to the bullet. This means if you have the chronograph close and shoot 30 cm over it, you must aim the chronograph 30 cm under your target. This was a tad hard with my eyes...

    DAF and geezejonesy like this.
