    I don't know if this is where to post this...but as people that reload are the same people that use chronies...I've received a new gen 3 Magnetospeed chrony. I've read the instructions, but knowing the intricacies of these things, do any of you have any experience and words of wisdom on the finer points of using one of these (the kind of stuff not included in the instructions)?

    And, I've got a Chrony Beta I need to get rid of now.

    I've got one (love it BTW), other than getting it good and tight on the barrel, and making sure you have enough clearance for the bayonet, it's about as fool proof as it gets.

    One thing I always do though after a session when I pull up the data in excel is to Delete the csv file from the card when I'm done, and reset my string number to 1. Also before you pull the card, make sure and archive the last string or it won't be in the csv file. This way when you go out again, your strings start out at 1 and you don't have to weed through the csv file to find where that day started.
