Still using my old Pro Chrono, and thinking it's time to upgrade. Looking at Magnetospeed V3 (shooting suppressed) or LabRadar mainly and weighing the pros and cons, either one should provide me with reliable data. The way I look at it the V3 is the more complete kit for $330, the LR is still going to cost $600+ by the time I add a battery pack, RAT, and a few other misc items to make it work better. If I buy a mounting system for the V3 like what Wiser sells, then there isn't a good reason not to go LR as it narrows the gap on overall cost quite a bit.

However, the Wiser mount got me thinking why not the MS Sporter? I haven't found a great answer either way if the Sporter works well with suppressors on the Wiser mount or not. The Sporter and Wiser mount would have me less than the cost of a V3 kit and less than 1/2 the price of an LR. The Wiser mount would also remove POI shift from the Chrono hanging on the Suppressors.

Anyone try this combination?
