Plan on getting a chrony to really perfect all of my handloads. Looking at getting this one:

Chrony (http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0005823222713a&type=product&cmCat=SEARCH_all&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&Ntk=Products&QueryText=chronograph&sort=all&Go.y=0&_D%3AhasJS=+&N=0&Nty=1&hasJS=true&_DARGS=%2Fcabelas%2Fen%2Fcommon%2Fsearch%2Fsearch-box.jsp.form23&Go.x=0&_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1)

Anyone have experience with this particular model? Likes and dislikes?

The reviews on that link are unfilterd, all sound good.

If you thumb thru other reviews on Cabelas site you
will see they dont filter out unhappy people.

I always read the reviews on there just for that reason. Just thought I would also get some local input before the purchase.

Just be careful, seen plenty of people blast and destroy thier Chronograph at the range.

I believe it. A lot of people fail to realize that the device has to be set at different distances depending on the caliber you're shooting. Other guys just shoot the darn things.

Actualy, the last time I seen a guy do it he said that he was aiming at the target, which of course his chrono was not lined up with exacly, lol.

Anyways, cool stuff, my uncle uses his chrono to check the numbers against what his loading program says it should be.
