I have a Beta model that I had some trouble with this weekend. It was only the 2nd time I’ve used it (bought it new)…the first time it worked great. This time, the readings I was getting were extremely low. I was shooting a .45 ACP and measure velocities between 170 and 211 fps. It was consistently reading that velocity. I varied the distance to the meter between 10 and 15 feet, I tried with and without the diffusers. No matter what I did, I couldn’t come up with a reasonable piece of data. I also tried a 44 mag. with similar results
It was a clear sunny day with no clouds at all. The first weekend, when it worked as I expected, the conditions were nearly identical and I used the diffusers.
Any idea why my velocities were so low? Where do I start troubleshooting to correct the problem?
Thanks in advance for your help,
