What is the best way, safest way(for the Chrony) to check the velocity of front stuffer loads? Whether it be rifle or pistol? I haven't tried it yet, but it would seem to me that the sabot would wack the Chrony pretty hard even at 10 or 20yds downrange. What do you do? I have tried some loads with lead full caliber diameter bullets and had no problems other than unburned powder kinda fogging it up, so I moved the Chrony back another 10ft.
