chrony
About a month ago, I bought an RCBS Rockchucker press, along with dies for .30-06 and .223. I loaded a few and shot them, and then loaded some more. Today I also got to see exactly what they are doing, because I got a chronograph for Christmas. Pretty interesting information. One thing that I did notice was the fact that I have quite large deviations from the average. So I will have to do some more loading and testing. This is great!
P.S. I also got a clay pigeon thrower and a guncabinet for Christmas.

RE: chrony
I've used a shooting Crony for several years......and I love it....it's accuracy level is sufficient to tell me what I want to know......it's a great tool for the handloader......now if someone would make a cheap pressure barrel!!!!

RE: chrony
you need to mount the thing on a tripod and it's easy to do.....you want to do so in the shade and you want to mount the thing about ten feet in front of your muzzle.
Get it on a tripod and it's easy to manage!!!
I usually don't care about standard deviation.....I care about groups and if the standard deviation messes with groups, I'll change something!!!
