Shooting Chrony

[Skinny 1950]

I have seen pictures of the Shooting Chrony and like it's stone-hammer simplicity... would this be a good choice for mainly handgun applications, I shoot a lot of black powder which tends to spew a lot of crap out the front so would this affect what chrony to get??

I have the Alpha model and it works just fine. I initially only loaded pistol when I bought it about 10 years ago. It is also able to accept upgrades such as a remote display and a printer if you want it down the road.

They do have protective screens for black powder use, but you could make your own fairly cheap. I like the fact that you can send it to a Canadian address for repair if needed and to buy parts/accessories.

I bought the gamma master with printer and remote display for a bit over $200.00
I then bought the Chrony LED Lamps for indoor use and the carry case.
All in all I'm very happy with its performance.

Got me a basic model a while ago. Put about 100 rounds over it this weekend, 22, 9mm, 264 mag and it worked great. For my needs it works fine. If you need a sheild for the screen a piece of plexiglass would work perfectly

I shot mine twice last time I was out. Just clipped the front rod both times and it still seems to work.

Practice more, you'll soon be able to hit the screen.

Been lucky myself, never managed to damage mine so far.

For a cheap outfit, they work very well.
