Question for Labradar Owners

[Harrier]

I bought the Garmin based on all the rave reviews... The unit itself works as advertized... the softwarre UI sux big time... I hate it.

Are you talking about the phone app? Or the on-device menus?

I'm waiting for Applied Ballistics or even Garmin to come out with an integrated ballistics app.

The unit firmware is a bit tedious and a PITA but can be delt with, the phone app which is required to get your data off and into a usable format is crap and need complete rework... sure it looks good but functionally sux,

The Garmin Xero seems super attractive but that price point is stout. That being said, it might be worth a shot (ha). My Chrony works great but a smaller solution sounds sexy.

Thanks all.. good info... I think the decision is made... I'm going to defer to the practical side of the brain and look for a Garmin... The challenges with the LabRadar made the call for me (if they had been equally consistant / easy to use / etc. I'd have gone the other way).

I've seen some videos of folks putting the Garmin downrange on a tripod and shooting past it to gather data... if I need that 100y velocity I can do that.
