Chronograph Recommendations?

[weweber3]

I have about $150 in Cabela's giftcards after the holidays.

Any good options at Cabela's for chronographs?

Thanks all.

Unfortunately not from Cabelas, but less than the value of your cards. Sell cards for $135.00 and get this one. And make a box for it as Ajay and others learned that wads and chronographs don't play well together.

Sadly, you can't get this at Cabelas but this is the one I got - outside of an Oehler I think this might be the most bang for the buck.

Rainier, only one problem with that system. Their site says "It doesn’t matter if it’s a tiny .17 HMR or a rocket; if it’s supersonic, the SuperChrono gives an accurate reading of its velocity." What it reads is the sonic crack as it passes over the unit. Kinda takes it out of play for a lot of handgun rounds, or subsonic 300 Blackout, etc.

Looks like Cabelas has this... http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=739957&type=product&Ntk=AllProducts&searchPath=%2Fcatalog%2Fsearch.cmd%3FrecordsPerPag e%3D18%26No%3D0%26N%3D0%26Ntk%3DAllProducts%26Ntt% 3Dchronograph%26search%3DSearch&No=0&Ntt=chronograph

Link to post about this box?

Does this solve the "wad problem"?

I vote for the CED M2 chronograph.

That is it, I missed it. Get it now man. Go through Ajay's thread and you will see what I am talking about. He cracked his and ended up making a box to shield it from flying wads.
