Which Chronograph??

Due to an unfortunate incident yesterday (Ovenpaa shot my F1 Chrony :o :lol: :D ) I am in the market to replace it!

I have looked a the Chrony Alpha and Beta Masters with the remote screens and memory storage etc which are around £150, can anyone comment on pro's cons or suggest another type that they've found to be better at around that budget.

Cheers
Alan

Given that it was ten feet away it was a very poor group :oops: I can also confirm that 180 grains of Mr Berger's finest Hybrid at 2800fps will take a Chrony F1 down first shot.

I will post a picture :D

Is that two shots? first wasn't a clean kill? needed a coup de grace?

It actually took two shots, it moved when he fired the first shot and I thought it was the blast but the second shot was vert spectacular, bits flying all over the place.

He shot it twice?!! :o With a bolt gun?!!

I'm sure DM will back me up on this, that's not a "Doughnut" offence, but a Fresh Cream Cake violation! ;) :D

I think you should mount it and submit it for CIC medal classification. Would make a great wooden spoon prize :lol: :lol: :lol:
