What is a good timer,,,
I mean the hand held timers I see used to time a course of fire.
If I have this right the person hits the start button,,, This sounds a "go" tone signaling the shooter to start. From then on the timer records the elapsed time of every shot,,, Giving the elapsed time from start to last shot. Do I have that operation correct? Anyways,,, What are they called,,, Where can I purchase one? Can you recommend a good brand/model? I thank you in advance for your replies. Aarond .

I have the CED 8000.
It has a lot of features with different types of timing, but the most basic part is that after you (or another person) presses start, it waits a random amount of time, then beeps and times your shots after that. It gives you a total time and the time between each shot. I like it a lot, but it was not cheap ($150, I think?). I got it from Brownells. No one near me had one in stock.

Thanks BikeNGun1974,,,
Using the info from your post I was able to Google around and find the model you mentioned as well as several other brand.models.
Those puppies are more expensive than I would have thought,,, Basically at least a C-note for a base model. Since my friends and I are just messing around simulating steel challenge with paper plates,,, I think I'll stick with my $5.00 stopwatch for the time being. Thanks for posting a response though,,, I appreciate your help. Aarond .
