There is no denying the accuracy benefits of using a Labradar for bullet velocity and muzzle velocity measurement when doing ballistic calculations, load development and truing your Applied Ballistics software or device. The problems people mostly have with the Labradars, is almost always caused by incorrect setup of device settings, or even more so, not positioning the Labradar correctly in relation to the target and the muzzle.
With that in mind, great improvements in measurement consistency and accuracy can be made with a few upgrades or additional accessories for your Labradar. So here are the upgrades we have tested and recommend that improve and compliment the Labradar.

Labradar Mount Stand
Often when using a Labradar with a muzzle brake, the best position to mount it, is just above your muzzle, so as to get it out of the way from muzzle blast interference.
The problem with that, is that one of the tripod legs get in the way of the barrel, so with this great little stand that you add your own choice and length of legs to, it is a quad pod, so it mounts above the barrel without getting in the way.
Do not get a Labradar tripod if you want it directly above your rifle, get this Labradar stand instead.
