My new Bushnell Velocity 10 MPH - 200 MPH Point and Shoot Radar Gun does not work. I get the same reading over and over again, despite trying to measure speed of objects (both pitched baseballs and moving vehicles) known to be moving different speeds. Any ideas?
The point is, are you aiming at objects which move too slowly for the device.The point is, are you aiming at objects which move too slowly for the device.

You can add up to 25 miles an hour and more to your swing speed by taking advantage of your hidden, built-in swing speed multiplier. The top pros have always taken advantage of their hidden swing speed multiplier. It's why they drive the ball 280-300 yards The average golfer does not know he has a swing speed multiplier built into his own body-and drives the ball 210-220.
What is the swing speed multiplier built into every golfer? And how does it affect swing speed? It is a hidden lever system that multiplies any increase in hip speed 25 times.
Recurve bow arrows can travel up to 150
mph. compound bow arrow can travel up to 200 mph and in longbow arrows the
velocity is slower because the weight of the arrows.
The Bushnell 3-9X40 has been around for quite some time in several forms, but it is pretty standard to set it like any other scope.
With the gun resting solidly on sand bags or something like a Lead Sled, shoot at a target with a 1" grid on it. Those targets are a free download at http://targetz.com/, but you have to browse to find them. Targets No: 10049 or 10058 are both usable, if you can see a 1" aiming point with a 9 power scope at 200 yards.
With a known point of impact (POI) at 200 yards, you can move the POI to where you want it (inside the caps at the center of the scope, there are adjusting screws or slots). The norm is 1/4" per click (the adjuster can usually be felt to click) at 100 yards or four 1/4" clicks for an inch. At 200 yards, the adjustment will be twice what it is at 100 yards or 1/2" per click.
Make your adjustments, using the grid on the target to tell you how many inches it needs to move, and shoot the target again to confirm the adjustment is correct. It's pretty standard to shoot at least a three shot group to ensure the bullets are reasonably close to each other.
Another method is to set the POI at a certain number of inches high at 100 yards and assume it's right at 200 yards. If the mid range trajectory, for your cartridge, at 200 yards is X inches high at 100 yards, you can set your POI to that X inches high and be pretty close at 200 yards.
Try this...while holding your thumb on the battery door, shake the unit a little....if you hear a rattle, then a lens has broken off...(rangefinder is dead) If it doesn't rattle then you have knocked it way out of alignment. It might work on a STOP sign (because its reflective) but nothing else. Send it to bushnell for repair.
