Enjoyed the video. A few suggestions: 1. Buy a Garmin Xero 2. If you’re going to use the LR buy a magnetic trigger.3. Also, it helps to set the lab radar at a slight angle towards the path of the bullet . This gives better readings because the bullet will spend more time in the radar.
Thanks. I never had such problems getting muzzle velocity before and I think your suggestions for the Labradar are good. I will look into the magnetic trigger for it. Any suggestions by the way?
Yes, probably a few better choices out there, many of which you've already shown us. These might do better from a 9mm carbine or something similar, but as you said, shot placement is key. Anyway, happy Independence Day good sir! A great video for a great day!
Thanks Aaron. I hope you had a great Independence Day with family and fun.
fiddy grain
never heard of such a thing
I would expect it will be useful if you absolutely want to avoid over-penetration
thanks for the video
Bless your heart. Videos can be difficult and they are quite a bit of time & work.
Thanks again for watching! And Happy Independence day to you and your family.
@@sdkweber Went the range with my son and his new 1911. I chronographed 308 reloads in 16" & 26" barrels.
@@guardianminifarm8005 Very cool indeed. Do tell about what you learned from 16 vs. 26" barrel .308. Did you really see a tremendous drop in velocity in the 16" rifle?
@@sdkweber I have recently tested about a dozen handloads all at near max with the best powders for the caliber using 150, 165/168 & 180 grain boat tail bullets(SST, NBT, MatchHP, BTSP). I have also tested a couple factory loads(Superformance & Win Power Point). The range has been 185fps to 330 fps. Most are landing 200-250fps difference.
@@guardianminifarm8005 That is interesting. I have read each inch of barrel gives you about 25 fps difference in velocity and your test pretty well confirms that. A 10" difference in barrel length giving you 200-250 fps difference in MV. Thanks for taking the time to post that and answer my question.
Great test and happy independence day! Gotta say I disagree though. I think this is one of the more effective rounds on the market today. For what it's worth, I read about a guy who used this round in a self defense shooting protecting himself and his girlfriend at the time. The perp was shot once in the chest and dropped where he stood. Only shooting I know of so nothing conclusive but worth mentioning. It's unfortunate you couldn't get reliable readings on the ammo. The velocity is usually well above advertised. Thanks again for the test and take care.
Thanks. Nothing wrong with disagreeing as there is no absolutely definitive answer to my tests or anyone else's tests. They are tests and not reality. In fact, even a bullet that works once in reality may be shown to fail in another instance.
Here's the key: this fellow did it just right: A well placed shot... that is the key to making any bullet perform. Thanks for sharing that!
@@sdkweber well said! That's very nice to hear. Alot of guntubers test a round one time and draw conclusions from that. Can't wait for your next PAC-T test!
@@funwithballistics1016 Our next PAC-T comes out in about two weeks. We are putting out a precision rifle video next Thursday. Fun stuff.
@@sdkweber sounds great!
What camera did you use for the slow motion?
The Samsung camera with a super slowmo app. :)
DRT is much better
