Chronograph at the range

The weather was nice last week so I took some handguns to the range to clock reloads that I've done to see how well they correspond to the reloading manuals. The .44 Special was about 100 fps lower than the manual which the light crimp on the cartridge case may have contributed to. I just purchased a set of .44 special specific dies and am hoping they will work better than the .44 magnum/.44 special dies I was using.

I good way to spend a couple of hours at the range!
