    Big Tip

    Sight in your rifle/scope before you chrono. Otherwise, you'll end up killing the chrono.

    I was trying to do both to save time; now pack I pack a lot lighter when i go to the range.

    What brand Chrono? Some manufacturers cut you a 50% break for replacement.

            I double check by clamping my gun down, taking the bolt out and look through the chrono screen sticks back to the rifle. If you can do that or at least try to bore sight from the gun down through the chrony, you should be "close enough"

              The RO said that I was about the 100th to confirm a kill in their range.

                  I should have taken pics of the corpse, taken down by a 458S. She went down hard, burnt plastic was my lasting memory.

                  I will take pics of the next kill

                            Meh, I've shot 3, none of them mine...
                            Actually I only started collecting Milsurps 3 years ago. I think I might own about 24...They're cheaper than guns that will most likely never get the opportunity to kill somebody...

                            I belong to the group that uses firearms, and knows which bathroom to use.

                            Tis better to have Trolled & lost, Than to never have Trolled, at all.

                              I don't own a chrono, but have often wondered if I would do the same thing. I probably would.

                              But I don't know if I would tell anyone.
