JD45 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) A friend of mine has a Pro Chrono. It stays in his truck box and always works. How would you say the Chrony brand compares to the Pro Chrono? I just want to buy once and get good readings. And on a side note, I saw some GM's online that like the Pocket Pro II timer. I was all set on the CED7000. Now I'm not sure. Edited February 21, 2017 by JD45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I've been using a Chrony for 20 years - love it. It measures the velocity of bullets .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12glocks Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I have a ProChrono and like it OK. I have a Magneto Speed I like better because it is easier top setup at the gun club I shoot at. If price is no object you could consider a Lab Radar. There is some innaccuracy in chronographs and here is a review Brian Litz did in case your obsessive like me: http://www.appliedballisticsllc.com/Articles/ChronographChapter.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I have used a ProChrono for years. I also bought a Caldwell Pro Chrono kit and find it easier and more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg in VA Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I have a Pact and a chrony, I use the chrony all the time. I once put the chrony inside the pact and compared the two with the same load, I received a little difference in velocity but they were consistently the same.

Steve RA Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 3 hours ago, 12glocks said: http://www.appliedballisticsllc.com/Articles/ChronographChapter.pdf After reading the above it's obvious the Oehler is the best so it is good that it is available again. I've got an older 35-P and a Pro Chrono (which wasn't tested) and do use both but usually use the Pro Chrono as it is smaller and less problem to transport and set up. http://www.oehler-research.com/model35.html http://www.competitionelectronics.com/product/prochrono-digital/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UFO Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) I have a Pro Chrono with the Digital Link set up. It transmits to my phone and I can email the results. Works really good. Edited February 22, 2017 by UFO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IATURNKEY Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 My Pro Chrono has served me well for over 15 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbot Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Pro Chrony is a great unit. Especially for the price. I use a mylabradar - use this a lot, as I can setup quickly in an indoor range or outdoor in any lighting condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrasam Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I use a basic "Shooting Chrony" (http://www.shootingchrony.com/) and it's simple and good enough. I've had three (shot the first two). The first two were right on line with what I was chrony'd at during major matches, but this latest one is consistently 2-3 pf units low. Because it is consistent, I don't have any problems with it (I was really close at a major once before I knew, so I'd suggest you compare to a friend's unit whenever you get a new one).

conditionone Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Never used a Chrony but I do have a ProChrono with Digital Link. Coupled with the Chrono Log app on my phone I believe it's a great set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
