Experience with the Combro CB625 Chronograph Mk IV?

[mrben2475]

Had mine a good few years - easy to use and user friendly and despite what some say you can (with a little ingenuity and some cable ties) mount it to pretty much most guns, I've even used it on Webley Seniors/Juniors.

Best thing is the back up - shoot it/break a bit (most of us do at some time!) and pop it back to the owner and for a very reasonable fee it will come back good as new.

Thanks for the reply felix gunner. How accurate have you found the readings? Have you measured with the combro then had a shop/club chrony measure up to compare?

Not compared but check back with a search for other opinions - must have been dozens of topics on Combros over the years.

Had one of the Mk4 for years, also got a mark 2, readings are within a few fps of the ProChrono I have (but which is right?)

Very true .....which is right!? ....... I suppose as long as you've a 2fps buffer of the legal limit then all is well. The Combro is in the basket

My Combro is one of my favourite shooting toys (but I am a sad git)

I've had one for about 4 years and Chrono'd dozens of guns with it - and never shot it! Amazing what a bit of care can do!

I've been looking at several Chronos lately just as a bit of an interest and for £50 it's hard to beat these, and the customer service is excellent.

I lso bought the cable and software to put on an android phone, so I can get full print outs, graphs and chrono strings.

I tend to run with a few more than 2 fps to 'play' with before the 11.9999999, typically, I tend to tune to 11.6 at the most - the stuff I shoot don't complain - I've never heard of tin chickens & paper putting up a shout anyway

Hi bud,
ive had my combro for a few years now,works great but make sure the 4 x batteries are good,you don't tilt the gun and its better in natural light,cheers Marky

The combro is excellent and does not suffer the same light issues as.a.lot.of pro chronos as it is breaking an infra red beam. These can be replaced. Robin Hewitt will also do a little insert that means you dont have to press reset each time. Handy.
Get the bore alignment tube .... safest way to use.
It isnt so keen on spring guns...but on PCPs its blindingly good.
You are confusing FPS with FPE. The gun should be set up to run at about 11.5 FPE but the true level is down to you. Bear in mind that the pellet weight and even things like head size CAN affect the power output between ultra lite and ultra heavy.
The Combro is good but its pretty much limited to pcp airguns imho. But it fits into a pocket and can be taken anywhere.
Thoroughly recommend Combro

Wouldn't be without one. All springers here.

think he meant foot pounds not feet per second buddy.

This is a very good review of the good and bad points of the Combro:

Definitely said fps, not fpe & who tunes to 10 fpe?
