Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph
- Thread starter 021411
- Start date
got a rough guesstimate of when you guys will be restocking the brackets? they flew off the shelves quicker than i could get a cup of coffee this morning.
Mainly a magneto speed user....and mostly SOL for pistol. Being able to take the C1 to the indoor pistol range, set it on the bench and get data is a huge step forward for me.
Just happen to be working on three new barrels in three calibers and two powders. Accuracy and velocity data at the same time will be a nice benefit of moving forward from the MS.
MSV3 has always worked well....just some limitations the C1 eliminates. My main range has massive overhead baffles that make aiming the LR a bit challenging. The constant dropping my phone app during range sessions was frustrating.
Happy to jump on this....sad pandas at LR and MS today....but both those companies have treated me very well.

For some, this is a pretty big step in long term data and such. You can literally leave this on your rifle for entire matches or anything at all.
So, the sooner we get one, the sooner we are able to start recording massive amounts of velocity data compared to what we were able to reasonably collect before.
And then for others, they just like having something new as soon as they can. And that's perfectly fine too.
Thanks…I’m a wee bit more dense than usual this morning. I do tend to try to research stuff myself before asking question but apparently sloth has also set in. Lol.

So timely with the Garmin Xero, this was a welcome addition as I was over chronographs lately
My Labradar broke too many times to count, and I hate it, my MagnetoSpeeds is awesome but I hate putting them on, so I was running away from doing it.
This is so much easier

I may have spoke too soon as I don't recall where I read that. I'll find where I read that. NO SD card, USB cable. The manual is available online. https://www8.garmin.com/manuals/web...02C-9C6F-46EA-B8B8-26266A5122F4-homepage.html
Waiting for it to pop up on Cabela’s so I can snag one when they do their 5x club points in a couple weeks. Hard to beat 25% cash back.
Damn you people…. Just ordered from Sheels. WTF am I supposed to do with my Magnetospeed and Wiser Mount now?
I read that on the apple phone app.
Use the ShotView™ app to connect to your Xero® C1 Pro chronograph. After a shooting session is completed, see your ballistic data on the app, where it is organized and easy to interpret. Analyze shot data, including speed, deviation, extreme spread, kinetic energy and more — and export the raw data to CSV format. Exclude cold bore shots and other outliers from session calculations as desired. Create custom names for each session, add notes for specific shots, and mark clean bore and cold bore attributes for each shot. Filter by weapon type to quickly access specific sessions for review.
Everything can be a buttplug if you try hard enough.Damn you people…. Just ordered from Sheels. WTF am I supposed to do with my Magnetospeed and Wiser Mount now?
Butt seriously I bought in for the same reason as Frank. Sick of problems with Labradar, having the Magneto sporter come loose, tired of optical chronos setup and light sensitivity.
Is anyone else having problems trying to download/install Shotview on your Android phone?
Per Garmin:
"Android:
Per Garmin:

Yes, that is a screenshot I took using a MacBook. I don't have a screenshot on a PC.
Super excited for this one! Are there any good independent reviews yet? I checked with garmin and they are still a ways out from shipping.
I read the recoil one. Seems good but not sure it's entirely independent

***Update***
For those that ordered last night and see "Awaiting Shipment" yours made the cut for the second batch coming in tomorrow and we will do our best to get them shipping tomorrow as well.
For those still pending and says "Awaiting Payment" the funds have not been captured yet as I am personally calling everyone to make sure they want to wait for the next batch coming in November before capturing their funds. Please be patient as I have a ton of calls to make.
We normally do not like taking pre-payment for pre-orders for the reason I explained in the above post. If this format does not work than we will make changes as needed. We feel confident that Garmin will be sending out frequent shipments to us so the wait time should not exceed a few weeks. At worse, captured funds can be rolled into other products to avoid getting hit with Credit Card Fees.

my scheels order already shipped, managed to snipe the restock of the 419 mount with clamp as well.
Looking forward to the first wave of user impressions... Ready to ditch my labradar for something that's smaller and reads >4000fps (I have a couple rifles in the 4300fps range that I have to use a magnetospeed for) but I want to make sure there aren't any bugs or quirks that got missed and end up being a pain.
If anyone gets a chance to use the Garmin on a busy range, let us know if it false triggers or shows crazy values for shots fired next to you.

It worked well at the Gap grind and WI Regional Finale with tons of shooters. It really is what it is.
Labradar, MS are pretty much dead in the water.
I placed order. Everyone sold out. I did midway and they expect to be able to send one out 11/05. I think this thing is going to be huge. I am selling my magnetospeed.
A case would be nice, but unlike a Labradar, I'm not afraid of it shattering into pieces if it's looked at wrong.
Might look into a small pelican or something anyways.
Scheels still in stock ready to ship.
What's with all the mounting. Is there something wrong with the stand itself.
That's actually why I got rid of my lab radar. It was a PITA to use on active ranges, etc. Let alone being picky with suppressors. The MagnetoSpeed worked far better in that application. (Much to my chagrin, as I had vowed to never buy one of them again after the initial version was so easily broken and their refusal to make it right.)
We only like to sell items we have in the building for specifically this reason! Thank you for your order.
Well I may have discovered the reason for my problem. Seems Samsung is not running a full Android version but a variation of Android (Go edition). Apparently this makes the Shotview app not compatible because the Go edition does not have all the features of the full Android operating system. I guess I'll have to contact Garmin and see if they are planning adapt to the Go edition of Android.
UPDATE: I've contacted Garmin now it is wait and see. If you are planning to run the Shotview app on your phone or tablet I suggest you try downloading/install in case you run into the same issue.
