    Well I Finally Made It Happen!

    Yep, 4 years without a hiccup and in one blink of an eye (Flinch LOL), BAM done T-Boned my chrony and sent it to the landfill!

    Anywho, with my M&P off to S&W I have been working up the Mrs. a nice load for shooting and CCW in her 637 airweight. The bullet im working with is a 358156 cast from 40:1. I have been through BE, TG in the 800-850 range and recently tried 4.2 of Trail Boss and WOW what an accurate and soft shooter for her. She likes!

    My concern is the velocity is going to be probably in the 600-700 range ( Post Chrony Guess) and not sure if this is going to drive that bullet deep enough for CCW. She is very accurate at 7-10yds with it.

    A friend of mine borrowed my chrony and had to replace the screens. I was lucky he didn't shoot lower! Mine has been around for 15 years. With luck, it may make another 15.

    I shoot through my chrony off a bench now. Centered one with a scoped TC Encore in 22 hornet when I was playing with Encores. The one I replaced it with was better anyway.

    I can tell you for certain that a 303 Brit will scatter parts of a Chrony all over the yard.

    That can't be.Everyone knows the 303 is waaaay underpowered and is a mouse gun. ( I couldn't find the 'pulling your chain' icon...)

    There are those that have shot their chrony and those that will. I’ve shot mine and replaced with a Lab Radar.
