    that old single axis technology Jim, come on, get with the times (don't let using Terry as a benchmark for technological evolution keep you behind the times )
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    Never mind the fancy techno stuff, young Jon. How was Jamie's all-singing, all-dancing accelerometer attached to your rifles when those result were recorded?

    Thanks Jon, that answers the 'where' but not the 'how'. Jamie used to mount the accelerometer on an upturned scope mount, itself attached to the scope. Was you data captured like that, or the way I do it, low on a scope mount, just above the action?

    Knowing this stuff helps interpret the data.

    Is was effectively a dovetail clamp, very low to the action... Jamie had both options

    That sounds good.

    Best was when I drilled and tapped an HW95 trigger block, so the accelerometer was on the axis of the cylinder, although I don't recommend anyone tries loading and shooting an HW95 action out of the stock
