I have a Shooting Chrony basic chronograph. I like it fairly well, and got it for only $65, but I'm thinking of getting another one (the Shooting Chrony mostly gets used for paintball - and its been shot a few times-not by me). Anyway, while it works okay, I have a few complaints about its design:
1) The sky screens(?) are easy to break and a pain to store and assemble. The rods are kind of a pain to assemble.
2) I can't read it easily from where I shoot (it has to go quite a ways in front of the shooting bench at my range to be in the sun). I know they make one with a remote readout/control, which would solve this.
3) My LED is sometimes very tough to read, although this may be a result of too many paintball hits.
4) I like the fact that it folds up, but the rods and sky screen part won't fit inside, or even easily into the box.
Anybody have a low to moderate cost Chronograph they really like? I've seen one advertised that has some sort of light for indoor/shade use - that would be nice.
