So I’m dipping my toe into the chrono waters. Wanted to make sure I’m looking at the available options correctly before I buy something. I shoot stuff that some of you may not.
This is my shooting environment:
The optical chronos don’t work in the dark. And the Bullet Seeker is a bit too new (and expensive, right? Thought I saw $900).
Anyway, thanks for any help.
This is my shooting environment:
- Factory ammo only (I know this is the reloading dept but you dudes probably know more about chronos)
- Centerfire and rimfire
- 17cal (cf/rf), 20 cal cf on up
- 20 cal can be ~4225 fps, 17 cal ~3500 fps (but could eventually go 17 Rem @ 4400 fps)
- 100% suppressed
- Sometimes at night
- Usually alone or far away from others
- Outside, but under a metal range shed
- Always on a bench
- Just checking muzzle velocity (I think, but I’m a noob) to enter into ballistic software.
- I don’t change ammo brand/type often so infrequent use? I think I’m getting a kestrel for wind and AB.
- Bringing one to two rifles to the range at a time
- Rifle types are from a KRG W3 chassis-type with thick barrels to wood-stocked sporters
