    Thanks - I’d seen those on Amazon and the other auction site, that’s Plan B if I can’t borrow one.. have you got/seen/used one of those type? My biggest concern would be ease of operation, especially if the instructions are translated as poorly as some of the adverts I’ve seen!

    If you don't take Phil up on his cracking offer above, you're welcome to come over my workshop, borrow the chrono and send some lead downrange. Been ages since I had a good target session.

    What rifle did you short stroke?

    No finer air rifle in my book. I have a mk3 short stroked but in the mk2 stock and it’s just perfect.

    I got my Caldwell chronograph from the Bass Pro Shop in rapid city.
    I tested it in our motel room with paper wads in a straw.
    Good holiday.

    FWIW I just got a Caldwell Ballistic Precision Chronograph & iPad APP to test my HW95L .22. Easy peasy to setup & use with no problems. 24 shots and no errors and the iPad/iPhone APP is great for creating your chrono files for reference. You should be able to get this model for about $100.

    Here is a pic of my test setup.
