Like I said, if I were using a LabRadar, I wouldn't rush out and spend money to replace it with the Garmin. LabRadar is a very good unit and but for the fact that I couldn't find one when I was looking, I would be using one. But if I had to replace one, it would be with the Garmin.
I don't shoot at long range, never past 500 yards and that's seldom. With one exception that I can recall, I've found book figures of ballistic coeffcients and bullet drop are very close if not the same as what I have actually measured at varying distances based on chronographed velocities.

I realize there are serious long range shooters, but it appears there are many more who merely talk about long range shooting.
