I decided to quit trying to convince myself that I don't need a chronograph. I think it will be an integral tool for me to continue to develop safe loads.
The indoor range where I sometimes shoot, has a private lane where they will allow a chrono. So I'd like to get one that works best indoors.
My youngest starts college in January so I'm on a pretty tight budget, but certainly I need something reliable.
Any suggestions for a good one? Also if you're indoors you don't have to bother setting up the shades, Right?
Let the wagering begin. Believe me, I'l let ya'll know IF it happens. My famous last words.There are two kinds of shooters: those that shot their chronograph and, those that WILL shoot their chronograph.

This is one heck of a deal. I have used this for quite some time and it is awesome. I never have used it indoors however, but it should be fine. Just get yourself a decent tripod to go with it.

Very nice shooting.the bottom photo represents 96 rounds
See...told you from where I was speaking. Still, I thought they all required a cable run somewhere...unusually to a small display unit of some type. I do have quite a few tablets collecting dust in my house...one that I wouldn’t be all that upset if I accidentally shot it. However, I’d be pretty upset if I shot my chrono.The Caldwell is what my neighbor has. He come over to my place to use the CE Pro Digital. The unit your looking at requires you to run a cable to a smart phone or tablet. His has been a hit and miss on getting the connection to work.
I have had two, the one I shot and the one I have now.I have two chronographs.
Thank you Walkalong.Very nice shooting.
I usually get very interested in the equipment recommendations from experienced re-loaders. I've been trying to convince myself that I really do need a Forster Co-Ax after all...and perhaps will save some money towards that prize. But the Labradar is, and ever will be, totally out of my price range, and my comfort zone. As beautiful and awesome and lovely as it may be...there's a lot more equipment out there that needs my $600+ dollars (chrono, stand, case, accessories).If you're going to be shooting indoors, just save your money until you can afford a labradar and be dome with it.
It also has a wired interface available if you need to connect it to a Windows PC. The old blue tooth software didn't do Windows, but there is a new version so I don't know if it will or not. (both versions do Windows with the wired remote)he Pro Chrono will do shot strings and statistics without any external devices. It has the option for a bluetooth interface.
