Crappy Day at Range

[ET]

It was a dark morning with light rain drizzle on and off. Got to range with my friend and setup to give the PT a trial run. The setup went nicely and even manage to set MY Chrony inches in front of the muzzle.



Now started a basic test. Okay and then after a short period a secondary trace appeared without disturbing anything. What the ?.



And then unresponsive commands along with notifications that didn’t make sense. Okay back to the manual for some possible answers. All I’m going to say for now is that I’m not going to quit until all avenues are explored.

What load were you shooting ? 4227 and a 250gr. bullet ?

Thanks . I just like to keep up . Cool , overcast , perhaps some light drizzle has produced some MLII groups for me in the past . Tried 225 grain Barnes XPB bullets with N110 in my NULA . Didn't group worth a hill of beans . I also tried them in a MLII SS TH with less than great results .

The 225FTX shoots pretty good for me and like to keep them as my play bullet that's a little easier on my shoulder.

Okay a quick update on my issues. Uninstalled my PT program and reinstalled with a copy. This computer has sat in a closet for some years without being turned on. Will adjust my sensitivity level to see if the unwanted trace disappears.
Did a Module Test and all is well there. That load should have been around 31K so I need to adjust my gage factor. Once I get rid of the small secondary trace and get my gage factor adjusted I should be okay, I hope, chuckle .
Oh one more thing to try that I'm a little embarrassed to mention at the moment in case that makes a difference also. I'll only confess it if it turns out to be a factor,  .
