[Plated]

Just a few fun things I have done with my Chrony...

-Compare 7.62 NATO milsurp ammo with my handloads, to develop a duplicate
-Chrono my son's paintball gun
-Chrono Speers plastic training bullet, which I shoot in the garage (400fps)
-Chrono my pellet gun
-Check the velocities of different .22lr loads in my .22 rifles. See which is fastest, as well as most accurate.
-Check velocity loss in different barrel lengths. Pretty interesting stuff. Example, one .22lr load runs almost 1,200 fps in one rifle, and only about 800fps in a revolver. One .308 load is 2,800fps in a 22" barrel and 2,550 in a 17" barrel.
-Check velocity for handloads of different bullet weights. How much slower is a 55gr than a 45gr out of a .223?
-And, of course, check velocity consistencies in handloads.

Nice list Dave R....

I have not purchased one myself yet, and you have opened my eyes to a few more useful aspects of a chrony...its all about the "itch" to know more and load better.
