Almost 5 stars

Product worked great for my 308 but not so much for the 22. I need to work with the sensitivity settings to see if that helps. I love the fact that I dont have to worry about the sunlight hitting it just right to work so big plus there and seems to be accurate and repeatable once set up correctly. Definitely a learning curve but think this will be well worth the money once I get a better understanding of the nuances.

Got mine today. Looking good for my use

I gave it four stars, because I only wanted to chrony loads for my precision long range rifles. Who knows about the other possibilities. After getting it finally adjusted right I was happy with the results. Simple, cheap. I need to still figure out the digital watch menu, but that will take until tomorrow. Bigger case and sturdier would be nice.

Excellent product

I have one of the old style chronographs. This is a much easier and faster system. I used it the same day I recieved it to chrono my 375 H&H and 2 ar's. Worked great. The only problem is I can't figure out how to use it in my semi auto pistols. I don't think it woul like to be banged around on the slide.

Compact, easy to understand instructions and lightweight. Took it right out of the box and started using it. I do a lot of reloading for many different caliber rifles. Easy to swap from one gun to another. Yes I would recommend it.
