Went to the indoor range today with the LabRadar, the 696-1, and some 44 special reloads.
Shot for group and velocity at the same time.
LabRadar did not miss a single shot now that I have the proper routine down.
I set the distance to 6" and shoot off bags right beside the radar with almost the entire revolver in front of the radar's front face.
Had shooters on both side of me whacking away with 9's.
They did not trigger the radar once.
I use a laser boresighting module placed on top of the radar to aim it.

The solid copper monolithic bullets appear to have the strongest return signal followed by the copper plated and then the cast numbers including coated.
I did not shoot any jacketed today. I expect them to behave like the solids.
All that is as it should be.

I'll be writing up some of the results in another thread.
It would have been impossible for me to have used any other chrono under the circumstances.
