Shooting Chrony



Shooting Chrony chronographs measure the velocity of almost any projectile, including pellets, steel BBs, plastic and metal airsoft BBs, bullets, shotgun pellets and slugs, arrows, bolts, darts, paintballs and just about any other projectile. Shooting Chrony chronographs measure speed (feet per second and meters per second) from 30 fps to 7,000 fps with more than 99.5% accuracy.

MASTER CHRONY MODELS have the same features as their respective SHOOTING CHRONY MODELS plus: Remote Control with close-up read-out and 18 ft cord.
Now you can test your airgun's velocity yourself!

All Chrony models are powered by a single 9V battery and can be easily attached to a 1/4"-20 tpi camera tripod for fast, easy set up. The Chrony is simple to use, just unfold the box, set the diffusers in place if needed, turn on the switch and start shooting.

Gives numbered shot velocities

Velocity stays on display until you shoot again

ONE String, from 2 to 32 shot memory (Numbered)

Things I liked:

Metal case, remote control.

Things I would have changed:

Nothing

What others should know:

Like that there is no read out panel attached to Chrony that could be shot. I placed a 1/4" aluminum plate were the control would be. No chance of any damage at all now.

Things I liked:

The packaging in the box is compact, and the unit is easy to use.Instructions were clear.The cord connecting the two boxes appears to be a standard phone cord with RJ11 connectors, so if a cord gets damaged it will be easy to replace/repair.

Things I would have changed:

It would be nice if the chrony had a bit more sensitivity. It required a pretty bight light above the diffusers to work. I night like to import Chrony data directly to my computer, but the interface cables (Alpha-to-RS232 and 232-to-USB) and the software add up to as much as the unit costs. Like to see the software price reduced.

What others should know:

The primary difference between Alpha and higher grade Chronys is that the memory in the Alpha is volatile. Turn it off and all memory is cleared.If you want to bring the data back home, you might want to spring for the units with non-volatile memory.

Things I liked:

Everything! Easy to setup, easy to use. Easy to read the digital readout. I am real happy with this unit and wish I would have bought one years ago!

Things I would have changed:

Nothing.

What others should know:

The Alpha Master Chronograph is a well made, sturdy product. This is my first chronograph and it has worked flawlessly for me. I found the instructions easy to understand and it made it easy to setup the unit the very first time I used it. I really like how easy the unit folds up into a compact unit for storage and transportation. I have used the unit both outdoors and indoors. After ordering the indoor light unit for the chronograph I discovered I was able to "jury rig" my own method of lighting for indoor use. Although, I am very happy with the indoor lighting equipment for the unit. I created an Excel spreadsheet to record my readings for each shot, lowest velocity, high velocity, average velocity, extreme spread and standard deviation. I also record the pellet weight and then calculate the energy for the average velocity. I believe this information is very helpful in determining which pellet your air gun likes. I am extremely happy with this purchase.

    • Jim from USA asked:

      what are the sky shields do?

      • walter shipman from USA answered:

        They diffuse the bright lights, such as sunlight, to prevent damage to the the sensitive optical sensors. The sky shields are not necessary when using certain types of light, e.g.., fluorescent, as the light is diffuse enough already. If there is insufficient light the addition of "Skyscreen" lights is recommended.
