oldypigeonpopper Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 hello, if this is just for an air rifle you do not need to buy one but can use a laptop, or for £50 a Combro MK 4 from Crombo Ltd BN25 3JL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate had a blue chron ?? Screen went duff . Though he has just managed to replace it with a import from china . Stick to the combro .its easy reliable and above all works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fen tiger Posted April 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Thanks everybody i want it suitable for rifles but mostly i am interested in shotgun , i only have three Centre fires and i know what loads i use in them are doing and i never change them. But i miss my F1 i had it in part ownership with a mate who hit it with a shotgun load. I need a chrono again its getting difficult now without one. Will this combro mk4 do what i need? And where is best place to get one EBAY or direct. Please. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fen tiger Posted April 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Just had a look on youtube i dont know if i could use it on shotgun with this alignment barrel attachment, can they be used any other way.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrastu Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Ahh no .the combro wont be any good for cf or shotguns . Ok for .22lr and possibly hmr .but nothing above that .its designed for airgun use really . If i was to have a wide aperture chrono id probably look at the caldwell ballistic chronograph.

figgy Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 The Caldwell gets good reviews. Any chrony of the type will be suitable for shot guns and rifles. Worth putting something over the screen for protection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
