The Magnetospeed is going to be more accurate. It is physically measuring the bullet as it passes over the sensor. I wonder what is the max distance that it can track the projectile and get a speed measurement? Also, how close can you force it to track and measure.
@Rico11b it should be able to track projectiles out to roughly 100 yards depending on the size and speed of it. I agree on the Magnetospeed being more accurate, that's why I own a V 3 and I'm just borrowing this labradar to get some experience with it.
@@thelonggunner762 I'm not so sure it'll reach all the way to 100 unless you're using large projectiles like a 338 or larger. The full size version can do that, but this much smaller unit probably has a weaker transmitter. You'd have to download the CSV files from the unit to be sure of the max range, but even that will be dependent on the signal to noise ratio. Anything higher than about 12 to 15 won't be very trustworthy.
It’s definitely better then the V1 but idk if it’s better than the Garmin. I will say this it’s a pro that it’s made in the USA. If it’s as good as the Garmin I might just go with the lab for the simple fact of made in the USA 🇺🇸 edit:✍️ it’s actually made in Canada 🇨🇦 but I’ll support our northern neighbors over Taiwan if I can. However more research has proved that Lab Radar had a small monopoly over the Doppler radar industry. And weren’t willing to address there customers issues with their first unit. Until Garmin released the Xero so that’s kinda slimy of Lab Radar to do. Idk what unit I’m going to by yet because both of them have pros and cons. All I can say is I simply don’t want to put 600 dollars down on a unit that’s going to give me problems.
@Skilpadjie1 the Garmin definitely has the better smaller form factor but it is made completely of plastic. The labradars black housing is made out of metal. If I was rich I would take them out and beat them on a rock to see which one gives up first but unfortunately that's not the case😂
@@thelonggunner762very good response AND the lab is made in the USA 🇺🇸 that means something to me. It’s actually made in Canada 🇨🇦 but that’s okay as well
I notice that you can use the Labradar app on your phone for operating the LX without touching it after you power on. Have you tried the app yet? The app for apple can be used for the older Labradar and the LX.
For semi-rough use consumer electronics, I would ALWAYS go with Garmin. They have years of experience with outdoors electronics and they (for the most part) are nearly bulletproof. I shot an Oehler 35P chronograph for literally 30 years until I bought my Garmin earlier this year. It's the best shooting related purchase I've made as far as making my life easier.
This thing is pretty awesome. With these radar devices the most accurate placing is as close to the barrel as possible. Not the muzzle but the barrel axis. Have you ever seen a plane in the sky that looks Ike it’s living slow? That because of the angle you are looking at it vs the angle of travel.
Wait what lab has had this technology out for quite a few years before Garmin. Personally i think Garmin is copying Lab. But Garmin just released it in a smaller format before Lab could. Now with that being said it’s good that lab has this competition. Who knows when lab would have released the V2 if Garmin didn’t release Xero C1. I will say this since the lab is made in the USA im probably gonna go with them. Assuming both units are fairly similar in capabilities.
@-_-hi8964 it collects multiple data points out to about a 100 yd. The other distance you select is just where it will show you speed and energy (if you have it set up) which is more critical when using handguns or bow and arrow when figuring maximum effective range for hunting. With rifles I know that inside of a 100 yd there's no need for figuring energy we know that it has more than enough
I use N540 with 77gr scenars and 75gr hornadys. From 16" and cheap brass 2720fps but from lapua brass I got 2790 without pressure marks but it I keep it around 2720. Just got some 77 TMK to try and I already took my longest mag (HK) to have the longest COAL just barely fit in there.
Fyi, I emailed labradar and they said that the speed displayed is MV. Not at 10yds. I had heard both, so i asked labradar and they got back to me in just a couple hours.
@onebadjack1313 correct, the top number is at the muzzle and the lower v10 number is the recorded velocity at 10 yards. Good to hear that the customer service was fast.
Yeah but the Lab is made in the USA. Personally that’s kinda a big deal to me. If I can get the same functionality and cost as a product from over seas I’m going with USA made every time.
Grt says 30gr of xterminator 74,549 psi. 29.2gr 66363psi. I have gone high on some loads. A good bolt can handle it. If the gun is put together right (no overtorqued barrel nut) you wont have sheared lugs. You should get some of the 6 arc alpha brass.
I always have a hard time justifying buying nicer brass for my AR's when I know I'm going to to lose most of it out in the weeds.😂 For my initial load numbers I had my buddy run it across quick loads for me.
Love mine, 0 missed shots, didn't use the peep sight. I don't mind the arming, it let's me conserve battery, and being able to use the external battery is cool. I had a 6 hour range session and it was still around 40-50%. I had a guy with 6.5 prc on one side of me and a 5.56 on the other. Never picked up extraneous shots. I didn't wait any extra between shots, and it didn't have any problem keeping up. My old labradar is on fb marketplace, lol. I couldn't decide between this or the garmin. I picked it because everyone has a garmin and I liked the metal case. The size doesn't matter, it fits on my garmin arca rail mount that i printed too. Oh, it's also warrantied to be weapon mounted. Not that anyone would tell garmin it was mounted... I think either one is a fine choice.
This unit is made in America too i think that’s a big deal personally. I’m probably going with the lab as well. Especially if the American made is just as good.
Seems like it still has a lot of quirks one of the most annoying things is remembering to arm it. I never like that about the old one. This is slower than the Garmin. I love my Garmin and I would’ve paid not only the $600 I paid for it but I would pay $1000 is the best money I ever spent on a chronograph
I like the fact that the lab is made in America. I have the choice between the two and I’m going with American made. However I not going pay any more then 599. My magneto speed was 300 bucks. Is the convenience factor worth 300 extra dollars honestly no. It’s definitely not worth another 700
@@Johnny-jr2lq maybe you miss read what I said I said I would pay $1000 for it if they want it that much but it only cost $600 and as far as being made in the USA nothing is made here anymore. It might be assembled here, but I bet you all the parts come from overseas It works perfect every time no fast no mass hundred percent worth of money game changer
@thelonggunner762 amazing. I appreciate this more then you can know. Thank you VERY much.. Havak stock LOP. very short. I'm like 6-4 and like a 14" + So thank you
Buying tools from a gun shop is like buying electrical equipment at Walmart or a knife from a tobacco shop. Just because they sell doesn't mean you should buy them
The AI 223 will be close to the factory 22ARC ammo for velocity. The factory loads are at lower AR compatible pressures. The 22ARC has more case capacity and when hand loaded for a bolt gun at higher pressure it will out shine the AI.
My grandfather and dad both said by the time i grow up we wont have the rights they have freely, we would have to fight for them😳 HOW THE HELL DID THEY KNOW
I tell ya what i dont feel civilized or even a dam citizen at this point! Ive already went through the conceal weapons permit! Um dont u no me now? Wth now u want WHAT?
Finding data for more bullets from the various manufacturers would be nice. I have to extrapolate for most of my loads. The 6 ARC seems to be getting little love from any manufacturers except Hodgdon and Hornady. I’ve spent an obscene amount of money on powder and bullets just to find a combination that will handle deer using Barnes 95 grain LRX. My groups improved after I bought Forster sizing and seating dies. Do you crimp your necks; or do you rely solely on the neck tension from sizing?
