Garmin Problem

[Old Navy]

Took my new Sig and Garmin out this morning to see what my defensive rounds were clocking. I have had this unit for several months now and it never missed a rifle shot. Not so with my Sig. Target was set at 25 yards. No matter where I set the Garmin it never picked up one shot out of 20 fired. I tried at least 8 different positions. Left ,right, close to the muzzle and back to 15". No cigar. When I got home I tried it with my pellet gun which worked on day one before I got to the range with bigger stuff. The screen flashed each time I fired. It was really a short flash but looked like a " 1 ". Any ideas? I will go out in the morning with my .284.

Set to Rifle, Pistol, Bow, or Air Rifle, or OTHER?

Charged? If you don't care about saved data you can perform the reset procedure.

could be a faulty sensor

I did not reset to pistol. Thanks! Being 80 is a bitch. I hope that is the worst thing I do today.

That’s no biggie, glad you got it figured out.

I hope to make it to 80. Glad to hear you're out there squeezing a trigger.

How fast did you shoot?. Takes time to process the shots .

 

[Rocketvapor]

The "1" displayed indicated it detected a shot (shot #).
Not showing velocity is wrong range selected.
Next shot "1", no velocity.
Works as advertised

Several seconds like I always do with my rifles.

What velocity did you expect from your Sig?

Checking the velocity of my Sig ammo was the secondary reason I went to my range. While watching the coverage of the assassination attempt someone made the comment that a LEO on the ground with a clock could have taken the shooter out. I doubt that but at least maybe kept him from shooting. I set my target up at 25 and then at 50 yards. I used one soft bag to cradle my hands and shot the groups below. 20 years ago I have done without the rest. The white markers are 25 and the green 50. To answer your question, I just wanted to know if the Hornady Critical Duty was as advertised. I am glad I started with FMJ target ammo first.
