Oh no. My wallet hand is starting to twitch!
I run the Long Range League at our club and 3 of my shooters are playing with them. One guy is on his 3rd one ( one split length ways and they replaced it, one shattered in sub zero temps and they replaced it, he hasn't killed the 3rd one.....yet). You have to be very careful of your placement; we've found that a wood dowel CAREFULLY place in the bore will show you immediately if you are lined up right. We've checked them against Chrony and a couple others and the Mag is always within the margin of error in the comparisons. They are quick to set up and very easy to use and accurate. None of us has had the courage to try strapping it to our 1911's etc.
Intercooler, you would probably love it. No tripod,sky screens, or cables to mess with.
