Which Chronograph ?

[themorganator]

to be honest it all comes down to a couple of things ie, how accurate do you need to be ( hft/ft or plinking) i use a skan mainly because all my testing is done in my garage under artificial light and i need accurate results as if its my first test with a new pellet i need to know how consistent it is before i bother with accuracy tests, i also need it for doing shot count tests and power tests ect to be really honest the £179 i spent was well worth it.air guns are queer beasts at the best of times and i have now had 2 new guns running well hot and without a chrono you will never know untill its too late i would say that any body getting into air gunning with an alleged sub 12 ftlb gun needs access to a chrono just to be sure

I find the Combro more than adequate at about 40 quid

179 quid

So have I until now. I can't strap the combro to my hw45 and it doesn't like the recoil on the Evo.

It's a pain that the Chrony doesn't like strip lights, I'll be using it in the garage!

There is a light kit available for the Chrony which over comes this problem, it should also be possible to make your own set up.

The advantage of the Chrony (I have the F1) is that it can be used whilst shooting targets. I can set mine up on my homemade bench so that It records the velocity whilst I am accuracy testing.

Each pellet weighed then shot. Thus you know the MV and FPE for each shot of a group and can use this info for pellet testing/selection. It helps determine whether a light/heavy pellet does fly faster/slower and whether or not this affects the POI.

in the market for a new chrony myself at the moment.I shot the end off my combro while using it on my: springer [rubber bands allowed the recoil to move it]
I found all the pieces and superglued it back together which was a success and worked fine for a year....problem now is the batteries have gone flat and I cant get the thing apart..yup...cos it superglued...DOH!!!
