[QUOTE="5.56×250, post: 1649305, member: 110162"] Chrono will need a light system to work because I'm in deep shade at my bench. Bench is far from a plug in. Chronos are inexpensive in comparison to other parts of a reloading/shooting setup, but a light system and 300 ft of extension cord adds a bit to the price. My back is SHOT OUT and by the time I get an extension cord dragged out and set up a chrono, I've used up what I have in my back for the day. If I was pushing the limits like many do on this forum for extreme range, I could see the requirement for a chrono, but I'm not pushing my loads. Maybe a chronograph has become an expected part for the modern hand loader. It's been 20 yrs since I last loaded any ammo. It was considered a luxury back then and few ever shot a round over the beams. I appreciate all the input and I didnt mean to offend or make small any concerns or advice. Thanks to all for there contribution. Yes, the chicken came first as God commanded. The title was to peak interest in the tread so I could gather more responses :) . I also thought it would lighten things up and wr could have a little fun with it in the process. [/QUOTE]
