Anybody else use one of these? I bought the Sporter model and was a little less than impressed with the little computer box that came with it *until* I downloaded the free app onto my iPhone as well as my iPad and bought an XFR cable that enabled me to download the data from the computer onto my mobile devices, had a chance to play with it and spend some time with it at the range yesterday and really am liking this chronograph. Basically you shoot your string, connect the computer to your mobile device via the XFR cable and email the data to yourself or take a screen shot and save it to your pictures. Also I thought the chincey plastic carrying case was a joke so I took one of my pistol cases and some foam and made a case for it...

I like my V2 I've had for awhile.

Does clamping this device to your barrel affect the accuracy? The accuracy of the shot, not the measurement of speed.

USAF42353 I will typically find an accurate load that I'll want to use or further investigate and then chronograph that load so I'm not usually concerned with accuracy while chronographing my loads but I haven't really seen a noticeable difference between shot placement wether the bayonet is attached or not and I really don't have that much experience with it so maybe somebody with more time with the unit than I will chime in.

It does change POI slightly from on/off. I don't shoot competition with mine on. Just used for obtaining data for ELR shooting. Scott

For me it depends on the rifle but generally it doesn't effect group size, just the POI.
