twodownzero Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Shot mine last year just to get it out of my misery. My thoughts exactly, although I haven't shot mine yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillD Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 My F1 works fine with pistol bullets but I can't get a reading with .223's at all. Just one ERR after another. But mine is over 10 years old. Possibly I can send it back for upgrades? I'll try not being under the cover at the range. Using a black sharpie on the rifle bullets? Really?

Yes, it adds contrast so that the sensors pick up the bullet. It becomes the shadow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac_TRAP Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I use the BETA Chrony with DIY IR-LED lightning system. It works very good for me and missreadings are very seldom and mostly caused by to little distance between muzzle and chrono. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
