Reply #60 - Oct 2^nd, 2020 at 3:13pm Sarosh, that was the exact analysis I just did and was about to post, I got ~4% for a 24" sensor distance(~61cm). I agree that the card speed is extremely fast for a throw, from what I've seen elsewhere, around 60mph is the "world record".

I used my 18" Lahun-style sling I calculated the average velocity over 40m to be ~50m/s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=becjp8sMm_M&feature=youtu.be

What was the approximate weight of your ammo?

I don't know exactly, but I remember it was vaguely similar in size and shape to a 120g stone I picked up at the same time. Not more than 150g.
