Ran some .45 acp on the new chrono
I was testing for my Competition loads. I just bought a new CE Digital Pro Chrono and a bog pod to mount it on. Worked very good for my purposes. I do not have another chrono to test against until I shoot with a buddy of mine in a few weeks. All were accurate, one big ragged hole. Shooting was close (10yds). It is very windy here today and overcast, temps in the high 30's.
Pistol is a Ruger SR1911 String 1) A#5 7.8gr 200gr Rainier plated SWC 814 822 avg 816 20 ES 819 7 SD 833 834 824 823 820 String 2) A#5 8.1gr 200gr Rainier plated SWC 874 845 avg 826 48 ES 834 15 SD 854 844 840 831 err String 3) Tightgroup 4.8gr 200gr Rainier plated SWC 866 846 avg 836 62 ES 845 21 SD 831 831 851 888 err I did not get near Accurate's published numbers but it may be because of the temp. |

Thanks for the effort. I've recently loaded some 200 grn plated RN for my 45's so I'm interested in the numbers. I did use Titegroup with about 1/2 my loads( H Universal for the rest) but I didn't use the chrony with them.

Joy of Handloading
You did not get Accurate's numbers because you tested your components from your gun with your equipment in your environment.
But you still got good numbers.
