I picked up one of these, works great!Greg Piet makes a trigger, The PI-ft on facebooks
I figured sooner or later someone would come up with the same design... good on them and I wish them well. Hopefully they didn't just buy one of mine and reverse engineer it... karma is a bitch.Has anyone tried the recoil trigger from JKL precision?
Isn't it funny how it never existed until your design came out and a bunch of people bought one? Yeah I hope they did their own R&D and started from scratch.I figured sooner or later someone would come up with the same design... good on them and I wish them well.

Yeah guess I know how B+T, Switchview, and Short Action Precision feels about the "extremely similar products". Oh well. I did it to help the community and getting a few bucks was an added benefit. Free market is a wonderful thing regardless.Isn't it funny how it never existed until your design came out and a bunch of people bought one?

Looks like I sold a unit to someone in the same town that company posts from on Jan 2 and they were working on their new project late January. Curious timing for sure. Bless their hearts.Isn't it funny how it never existed until your design came out and a bunch of people bought one? Yeah I hope they did their own R&D and started from scratch.
Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad the community is finding benefit in the concept and execution.So I feel compelled to jump in here. I live local to Greg (wildmanpiet) and have never met him outside of electronic conversation.
Spreading the word I’m sure will help keep things in “perspective”
There are a few videos as well on YouTube but after some local folks mentioned it enough I am making it more available.
Or on YouTube here are the videos:

It’s so minor but it tracks it out at a little distance and then does a calculation to back into what it started as at the muzzle based on the offset you told it you were at.Curious, how does the Labradar determine velocity at the muzzle if you have to use different muzzle placements and offsets for shooting suppressed and non-suppressed?
Or is the difference in velocity so minor it doesn’t matter?

are you shooting by yourself or on a line with a bunch of folks. i have both. ive found when i am shooting suppressed in places with others i know with the magneto i wont miss stuff or have others get picked up versus mine. i'm not tech inclined to begin with though. if i have the time and its me and just a friend or two out in a field the i prefer the labradar as i dont have 'stuff' on my gun.What are everyone's thoughts now a couple years down the road. I want to get a one and done chrony. I really want one of these but how much money am I going to invest to hit the range? $560 for the unit......how much for an external battery pack.....and what mics or triggers are needed? I see wildmanpiet triggers are $50. So ball park guesstimate $700-800 all set up to catch all the shots? I do not like the magneto at all. I shoot suppressed now for the most part and am constantly moving and switching guns. Also, don't like the thought of something hanging off my barrel. Yes, I know they are accurate, work, and are cheaper.
Thanks for the necro post! LOL (I am kidding!!!)What are everyone's thoughts now a couple years down the road. I want to get a one and done chrony.

Try using low power mode on the baffled range?are you shooting by yourself or on a line with a bunch of folks. i have both. ive found when i am shooting suppressed in places with others i know with the magneto i wont miss stuff or have others get picked up versus mine. i'm not tech inclined to begin with though. if i have the time and its me and just a friend or two out in a field the i prefer the labradar as i dont have 'stuff' on my gun.
ranges with any sort of baffling give my magneto troubles.
when i moved out of light cronos i got a labradar first. got the peit trigger after a while to help with the suppressor issue. but with the baffles on the range where i tend to zero and do load development in town always giving me fits, i picked up a magneto.
I think I will roll with the labradar once I save up and after I donate a kidney lol jk. I dont ever shoot at a range much any more because the desert is so close. And the only range I do go to is usually dead early as long as it is not super sunny and warm. I usually just shoot out of the bed of the truck on a front and rear rest. Hopefully build a bench here soon so I can get out of the bed All the research I have done seems to be promising. But until then i will have to go swoop my dads old school CED millennium chrono hahaa. Id like to also gather data out past 100 and it seems the labradar can help there as well. Id really like to see how much my loads drop further out. Might just have to bite the bullet and not tell the wife...Thank you everyone for responding and sorry for bringing up the old thread.are you shooting by yourself or on a line with a bunch of folks. i have both. ive found when i am shooting suppressed in places with others i know with the magneto i wont miss stuff or have others get picked up versus mine. i'm not tech inclined to begin with though. if i have the time and its me and just a friend or two out in a field the i prefer the labradar as i dont have 'stuff' on my gun.

Not sure if he is a member here, but just made a video about an unusual aiming technique for a heavily baffled range such as yours.yes. ive tried just about wverything. they have tin and beams creating baffles above line of flight, below line of flight, and tin on exterior walls if you are close to the edge of the range. if your in the middle of the lanes there are railroad tie supports. ive also had troubles indoors at a range i tried. so i relented and bought the magneto. yes its a little more trouble to mount up, but once it is its a breeze to use on ranges that give the labradar trouble. if i'm shooting out on open land then i go to the labradar.
This is, IMHO ... the "only" and "best" way to trigger your Labradar.What is the secret to get this thing to read while shooting with a suppressor? I tried everything and every position short of shooting the damn thing.
I haven't had a missed shot yet with mine. The only difficult part is deleting the "false shots" where it triggered when I closed or opened the bolt.This is, IMHO ... the "only" and "best" way to trigger your Labradar.
Labradar Trigger Gen 2
This is the gen two trigger for the LabRadar chronograph. It will work on anything from a 22LR to a big bore rifles. The trigger works great with suppressors and crowded ranges. The new, removable …jklprecision.com
Try using a less sensitive trigger level setting on the LabRadar. An alternative to test is position the trigger further away from the action.I haven't had a missed shot yet with mine. The only difficult part is deleting the "false shots" where it triggered when I closed or opened the bolt.
