I would if I could. Like you, my eyes are bigger than my wallet.

Tickle me Elmo?This is getting as bad as cabbage patch dolls and pet rocks....
Yay, the date changed a couple of times, it was duck hunting season so I wasn't really gonna use it. My duck spots are froze over now. Hopefully gonna be able to use it this week!!!Great. I got tired of Midway restocking dates receding into the future and bought mine from a place that actually had some. I will be loading ammo today for another series of power factor tests.
As I check a couple of sites lately, the Labradar is also now $499.95 at most places--$100 cheaper than the Garmin! It'll be interesting to see if Garmin drops their MSRP in response.
it seems like the Labradar is much better at ignoring shots from neighboring lanes.
I'll say, flat out, that either you read these reviews backwards, or you read someone trying to defend their LR by telling lies online.
The ONLY concession I could make that would suggest the LR is better at ignoring neighboring shooters is to acknowledge that the LR ignores a lot of shots overall, even the ones you WANT to read. The Garmin does a much, much better job of 1) picking up shots, and 2) ignoring neighboring shooters. Even when it does read a neighboring shot, it does a great job of ignoring the data from the dataset.
I really haven't found anyone who has compared them side by side.
I think you’d have to have been living under a rock for the last few months for this to be true. Side by side comparisons are all over online - including my own such review on page 2 of this thread.

I’ve noticed the Garmin “notice” a neighboring shot a few times, but not many, and it has NEVER yet recorded the shot into the string (as I mentioned in this thread - I don’t know how it knows it’s a shot but also knows it’s not MY shot, but it does). The Garmin will “think” for a few seconds as if it is registering the shot, but will reject the neighboring shot and instead return to the ready mode. Alternatively, I’ve frequently had to delete data out of my LR strings from neighboring shooters at the zero line before matches, so I typically use my inertial trigger to avoid that opportunity - OR worse, more commonly, the LR just doesn’t pick up shots, especially when brakes from neighboring shooters waft the LR out of alignment from the target.
I also - as I mentioned in this thread - have carried the Garmin in hand like a GoPro and walked behind a line of shooters and registered their shots…
The Garmin has been much more selective in these few months than I have experienced with the LR.
