You can lose the first couple of shots with the Labradar if you're not careful with the aiming. And Labradar's aiming notch on top is pretty average for such a narrow beam. I'm hoping the emission beam on the Garmin is more forgiving.The guy in at least one of those videos indicated that it's much more forgiving than the Labradar. Supposedly it never failed to capture a shot? There will be more videos popping up ever day as well. More people to beta test it, if you will, so we'll be getting a larger consensus. And eventually someone will test the scope of the radar read directly to find the threshold of what's acceptable. Could vary, depending on the firearm, bullet weight and speed, etc.
I never used a Labradar so I don't know how to set it up and use it. But I think it's interesting that with this Garmin you start by selecting whether you're shooting a rifle or handgun. And what approx velocities it will be. Just basically under 1800 fps or over that, if I remember. And you can also enter in bullet weight, apparently. Hey, whatever helps the thing to work well.
