	I agree about the Chrony, I bought mine in 1986. They are very easy to set up. I'm going to send it off to update it. Frank

	I've had good results from the Pro Chrono I have made by Competition Electronics. I think they are still less than 150.00 I paid about 120.00 a few years ago. Terry

	My Chrony worked fine until I sent a 45 caliber gas check into the front end of it. JS

	I have an older Chrony and a somewhat newer ProChrono, the Chrony is much better, the ProChrono doesn't reliably pick up every shot.

	My cheapo Crony has served me well for 10yr. Think I paid $89 for it. If were to do it again, I'd get the model that allows one to have the readout next to them. I'm so blind these days that I have use a pair of binoc's to read the data (or get up and walk over to the Crony).

	Yep, my Chrony went to glory when it caught a Kieth style wadcutter from a 357 Magnum. Returned the Chrony to the manufacturer and was given a credit. I upgraded to a model with the remote read out. Point being don't trash the earthly remains until you communicate with the Chrony folks. The Chrony is a good machine.

	I used to borrow a chrony who's owner would drink and shoot. It had a LOT of bullet holes in it! I'm building a deflector for mine before I attempt to put it down range.

	I like that new chronograph Cadwell is selling, as it plugs into my smart phone and all the data is presented and saved there. Then I can email it to myself. The chrony alone runs $80 or less and the complete kit ~ $135. (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

	All of my single shots shoot one tiny ragged hole with cast bullets ... it's just the following shots that tend to open up my groups ...
