Title: A cool gadget
Post by: Bill Leeper on September 14, 2024, 01:45:58 PM
I recently picked up one of the coolest shooting accessories I've ever purchased. A Garmin Xero chronograph. Chronographs have been available and affordable for many years, but this thing is so compact, so convenient and so easy to use, it's really in a class of its own, though there is a similar product now available from Labradar. Unaffected by light conditions, no need to line up screens or worry about shooting them. The controls are intuitive and easy to use, even for a mature, technically challenged, individual like myself.
 I was shooting yesterday. To set up to chrono and record my shots, I opened up the little tripod legs, set it on the bench, pushed power button and I was ready. Awesome little gadget. Bill

They are great! I had a Magnetospeed previously and it wasn't ideal, I always wanted to buy a Labradar but the cost and seeing how others occasionally struggled with them was a deterrent. I sold the Magnetospeed and bought a Garmin as soon as they came out, great little units.
