I use a Combro.

 

There small, cheap and handy. A bit fiddly on an under lever rifle but, it's doable.

I've also used it on break barrels and Co2 rifles.

 

I've had it for a couple of years now and it's still accurate when compared to results from other chronos.

 

And, I've never shot it ;)

...... But, I hear Robins customer service is legendary if I ever do.

Combro... works for me. After all... it maybe cheap, but what's a ft lb here or there.

 

Rapids spitting at 11.8... at the end of the curve :D

 

But, yeah, it's a decent little tool. Nowhere near as accurate as the posh feckers with F1's. But they can't shoot anyway :)

Second what Mitch just said,

Vital bit of plastic, check the alignment every new mag in a multi shot

doesnt take much to be off centre to miss read a shot or smash the sensors lol

 

They come up a lot on certain other forums so keep your eyes open.

I use both Combro and Crony F1.

 

Crony F1 pros

Display reads to 0.1 ft/s (ie., 850.3 ft/s)

Stand alone unit

 

Crony F1 cons

You need illuminators if you're using it indoors or you'll keep getting errors

Bulky to carry around

 

Combro pros

Very portable

Easy to align if you also buy the alignment tool for it

 

Combro cons

Have to attach it to the muzzle (I use electrical tape, but folks use rubber bands, velcro straps, etc.)

Display rounds up to the nearest ft/s (ie., 850 ft/s)

 

Both are reasonably accurate

 

The combro is always with me when I'm shooting at the range - very useful if you're trying to diagnose constantly shifting POIs.

 

Cheers
