Just wondering what kinds of chronographs you like. I have and use a
Shooting Chrony, Gamma Master model.
It's the one with the remote control/readout, and the printer. The only thing downrange on it is the sky screen and sensors... The rest of the unit is on the table beside me. I have had no problems with it, it is very accurate, and just love using it. I used to have the most basic model they make, which is all in one, and EVERYTHING is downrange. It was simpler to use, and you had to have a pencil and paper along to write down the numbers as you went along, but I loved it too... Only problem with it was, if you shot it, you shot the whole enchilada...
