This review compares the Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph to the MagnetoSpeed, highlighting ease of setup, portability, and lack of point-of-impact shift as key advantages of the Garmin. While the MagnetoSpeed may offer slightly higher inherent accuracy due to its magnetic measurement, the Garmin's user-friendliness and versatility make it a strong contender for shooters who test various firearms and ammunition types.

This video explores the impact of AR-15 barrel length on projectile velocity and terminal ballistics using M193 55-grain ammunition. Testing 14.7-inch, 16-inch, and 20-inch barrels with a MagnetoSpeed chronograph, the data reveals significant velocity differences, particularly past 300 yards, affecting accuracy and wounding potential. The discussion also touches on the reliability advantages of longer barrels with rifle-length gas systems.

This video provides an initial unboxing and setup guide for the new Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph. The presenter details the pairing process with the smartphone app, software updates, and various mounting options, including an upside-down configuration on an ARCA rail. Initial testing with .22 Long Rifle ammunition demonstrates its functionality and the data captured, highlighting its compact size and competitive pricing compared to other chronographs on the market.

This video from Ridgeline Defense, presented by Jimmy B Rodriguez, focuses on advanced shooting techniques and data management for precision rifle engagements. Key takeaways include mastering trigger control for rapid follow-up shots, understanding the importance of natural point of aim for equipment, and utilizing tools like chronographs and Kestrels for ballistic calculations. The instruction emphasizes efficient data management and shot execution in various scenarios, culminating in a challenging 'hoodie test' that assesses overall skill.

This is the second part of a review of the FN SCAR 20s rifle chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. The video details upgrades like Parker Mountain Machine rails and a MotoTech Engineering SCARburator. It covers shooting the rifle suppressed with a Q Jumbo Shrimp silencer and a Magnetospeed for velocity measurement. The reviewer also had the opportunity to test its long-range capabilities at Rock Lake Rifle Range. Despite encountering a few issues, the reviewer expresses enjoyment with the rifle's performance.

This video provides an expert-level comparison of four common 5.56/.223 ammunition types (XM193, SS109, M855, and M855A1) tested for steel plate penetration. Using a custom bolt-action rifle and a MagnetoSpeed chronograph, Banana Ballistics objectively measures velocity and penetration depth, revealing significant differences in performance, especially against hardened AR500 steel. The M855A1 demonstrated superior penetration capabilities in mild steel, while all rounds struggled against AR500.

This expert-level guide details a rigorous ballistics test comparing 5.56x45mm NATO and 5.45x39mm rounds on mild steel targets. The host from Banana Ballistics, demonstrating high expertise, uses a MagnetoSpeed chronograph and precise measurements to analyze velocity, penetration depth, and projectile deformation. The findings reveal significant differences in performance, particularly with specialized rounds like M855 and 7N6, offering valuable data for firearms enthusiasts and ballistics researchers.

This guide details a practical approach to breaking in new rifle barrels and establishing an accurate zero, as demonstrated by Matt of Sawtooth Rifles. It emphasizes starting with initial sighting at 25 yards, moving to 100 yards for group confirmation, and utilizing ballistic data from a chronograph to achieve effective long-range accuracy. The process highlights that barrel break-in is a real phenomenon affecting the first 20-40 rounds, leading to minor changes in performance and potential velocity increases.

This episode of TGC News covers several new firearm products, including the Masterpiece Arms DS9 widebody pistol and the Kel-Tec P50 chambered in 5.7x28mm. It also discusses industry news such as Hornady's new ammunition and accessories, Cheaper Than Dirt facing price gouging accusations, and the acquisition of Magnetospeed by Nielsen Kellerman. Additionally, the segment features an armored Ferrari 458 Speciale and highlights the YouTube channel 1911 Syndicate.

This video from InRangeTV, featuring Ian McCollum, provides an analytical and experimental comparison of 7.62x39 and 7.62x51 calibers in short-barreled rifle (SBR) configurations. The expert analysis reveals that while 7.62x51 loses significant energy in an 8.5-inch barrel, 7.62x39 remains more efficient, producing comparable or even higher energy levels from the same short barrel length, albeit with substantially less muzzle blast.

This guide provides a quick setup for the Kestrel 5700 Elite weather meter for precision rifle shooters. It covers capturing environmental data, ranging targets, inputting wind and elevation adjustments, and building a custom gun profile using muzzle velocity and bullet data. The process is demonstrated for achieving a hit at 300 yards after establishing a zero.

This video showcases MagnetoSpeed's innovative new target indicator. The device attaches to the rear of a steel target and provides a visual cue by lighting up when the target is struck. The title highlights its capability at impressive distances, exceeding 1,000 yards, suggesting a focus on long-range shooting applications and the technology used to confirm hits at such distances.
