diesel I use two, 1- ProChrono chronograph, and 1- ProChrono Digital with a Optional Remote control with a printer interface.

Both are digital however one can store more strings and be able to print the strings out if wanted on a computer or with the interface in the field.

I use two for checking cal. only, this asure I am shooting the fps stated if both read the same. Not nessuray just the way I do it. They are not that costly and worth the money in MY BOOK. A ProChrono by Competition Electronics, Inc. only cost around $89.00 plus shipping.

I am using an old Chrony. It is just a basic machine, compact and and easy to use.

im gonna try this one out shortly.. its used for paintball guns and had no problem reading my markers that shot 280-340fps.. Im gonna rig it to the footpeg and see if it works. Figure its worth a shot instead of spending 100bucks on a new one just for my bow

here is the link

I use my buddy's chrony after he shot mine, then broke down and bought one for himself. :roll:
If you use them for saboted muzzelloader bullets be sure to protect the display screen! A sabot will destroy one for sure! :shock:

I have a CED Millennium Chronograph from Competitive Edge Dynamics it is a nice unit. I got it with the infrared sky screen. You dont have to worry about the angle of the sun or clouds. They even work in side or under a covered shooting lane.
