Your thoughts on the Shooting Chrony

Experts,

Have some questions about the Shooting Chrony F1.

1. Do you find that the device is a little finnicky when it comes to the decision to use or not use the reflectors? I used mine for the first time yesterday and I got good readings and bad readings with the reflectors on and then I got good and bad readings with the reflectors off.

2. How far downrange do you place the Chrony for best results. I had mine real close to the muzzle. I should have known better! It is now filthy.

This Chrony is supposed to work with small caliber slugs. But I find that it seems not to be able to consistently sense a .22 caliber pellet from a pellet rifle.

3. What is your experience with measuring speed of lighter caliber projectiles?

I am confident that as my experience with this device increases, I will get better at using it. I must say that the Chrony seems to be easy to use and once I start getting consistent speeds, I will really enjoy the thing.
