[QUOTE="Clark, post: 243812, member: 6600"] The most important use for chronographs is bragging about velocity on the internet. This may seem cynical, but this is a real need and motivation. I can get 4200 fps from my .223 with Blue Dot powder and 35 gr Vmax bullets. That information is not useful directly and the load is not useful. But the chrono is indirectly useful. It gives us a frame of reference to document and discuss our hobby, but it will never give us a better load than we can get without one. I have shot a hole through two "shooting chrony"s. I have shot a hole through one "pro chrono" I am now on my second [my fourth chronograph] "pro chrono" If I shoot a chonograph once per 10 handguns shots, and never shoot a chonograph with a rifle, then I can skip chronographing handguns for a year and get many rifle data for cheap. I like the pro chrono much better the the shooting chonys. The pro chrono triggers better. [/QUOTE]
