I remember when I first got mine , I thought how can bullets going that slow , group so well 

They are a fun little tool to have around and it did help with some of the things I did as far as loading goes , mostly made me think about " Do I realy need that extra 100 FPS " It also helped me make some choices as far as powders go , mostly as to which would do a better job and still give me the results that I was looking for .

Quite so! Helped me fine tune (after many years) my reloading habits. Some good, some not so good. Calmed the ES and SD's quite a bit. Matter of fact, I got out today for the first time in months, and one set of numbers came in at ES = 11, SD = 5 with H4895 in my 356Winchester.

Nice setup there John - thanks for the pics. It snowed and rained on me, so camera stayed in the truck.
