    Chrono friendly ranges

    As the title states.
    I went to discount gun mart and they said no use of chronograph.
    South Bay rod and gun’s pistol range is closed due to rain.
    Any other ranges you know allows the use of a chronograph.
    Load is 3.5 zip 147gn (L)-HP

    willing to drive anywhere within a 1hr drive from central san diego

          sometimes SBRGC will let you shoot pistol at range 1 and at range 5(there's a couple of lane spots just to the side of the trap/shotgun area)...best to call the RO to confirm as it might be at their discretion?

            To Many South Bays-
            willing to drive anywhere within a 1hr drive from central san diego

            I went a few years back to a shooting area closer to the border- near Otay.

            I believe it was BLM land.

            Many outdoor ranges will allow a chrono - if you can set up and take down during the cease fire times...

            I think the BLM shooting we did was near South Bay club. I don't live in San Diego so I'm not positive.

            South Bay Rod & Gun Club

            Rule 1- ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED

            Rule 2 -NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO DESTROY (including your hands and legs)

            Rule 3 -KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET

            Rule 4 -BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT
            (thanks to Jeff Cooper)

              What kind of chrono?

              The gun range off Balboa will allow a chrono, only if it's lab-radar.

                  If you mean South Bay Area, the Richmond Rod & Gun in Richmond allows chronos on the pistol and rifle ranges. You can check out times, costs, and location via Google.

                    Fwiw, I have also seen chronographs set up at Metcalf Range in San Jose close to Morgan Hill ... but it seems like OP is in SoCal.

                      Why don't they like like the Labradar? I have seen one only once and thought they were a little different. Why would they ban them?

                        I'm joking, they don't care. The post above mine says they only allow Labradar.
