    I'm not a 6.5 fan, but great video and thank you for sharing this with with us!
    I especially like how you showed us your setup. It takes a lot of equipment for testing, not just walk up with your rifle and a pocket full of shells.

      Just so long as you don’t get muzzle blast interference and have consistent reading you can put it as close or as far away as you want, you can put it out at 70 feet if you wanted, but will get lower reading. Since the CDS wants a muzzle velocity, I try to get as close, but yet still accurate reading I can

      The main reason is that if I ever wanted to sell it they are pretty hard to resell. Second reason, I mostly shoot off bipods and I can throw the bolt without taking my left hand off the grip and can shoot faster
