    I shot my gun bag with a cleaning pellet when I was a kid.

    I never thought in a million years it would make a loverly clean hole!

    I still have the gun bag!!

    You can't call yourself a boinger unless you've shot at least one chrono. Always best if it's your own.

    Yes you can add my name to the list, but in my defence the combo CB 625 mk4 has a very small hole to shoot through and it was at 45 yards!

    It sure looks like a lot of people either don't have a crono or may be suffering from dementia.
    You can spend thousands and still miss a barn door or spend just enough and enjoy yourself. If you haven't got the talent to start with a million pound won't fix it. Whippet, Russell, a few bang sticks and a flat cap. http://www.smart-tech1st.co.uk

    Did it a couple of weeks ago - F1 Chrony - rear sensor plastic shroud smashed by .22" antique BSA.

    Happily still works with black plastic tape over it.

    Improvised a metal deflector plate for next time!

    Too right I have, shot my mate's aswell.
    It was a hell of a shot, I squeezed the trigger, the gun coughed a pellet out and in less than a second, the chrono fell dead on the floor, without a twitch. Just like those guys in the gun mags do.
    Rust never sleeps !
