I recently picked up a Chrony chronograph that was pretty worthless. Probably only read 1/10 shots with the 9 others giving "Err2" (second sensor didn't read). Any recommendations for a better one that is good for all-around use? I shoot centerfire, air rifles and archery so I'd like one that offers enough space to fling an arrow through (kind of rules out the upside-down ones) but can still pick up a small .17 pellet.

I've had a ProChrono Pal that has worked 100% for the last 15 years. Its just a basic model < $100 but has always done what I needed. I take the 9V battery out between uses. -

My Chrony works great. Maybe there is a defective sensor and just needs warranty service?Comment

It works by the sensors watching the bullet's shadow go under the screens. Make sure you set it up where this contrast is good.Frank Da TankComment

Right. You had the sunshades on, right? Don't use it at high noon, earlier or later is best. I think it says that in the instructions.
Mine worked great, right up until I blasted them.Comment

I have 2 chronographs ; Competition Electronics & Oehler.
The Oehler is a lit PITA to set up but extremely accurate & precise. So if I'm just swaging it, the CE is fine.
I'd probably get a LabRadar if I was starting from scratch but they are a bit pricey. A huge jump up from a Chrony.Anyone press will hear the fat lady sing.

I also have 2 I was given one of the cheaper ones and thought that it would be more convenient than the Oehler. I used it once or twice and decided that if I want to Chronograph something I want good data. So I end up dragging the Oehler out.
The Oehler is a pain to set up, but it is very accurate and mine is probably 30 years old and still working fine.Comment
