Unfortunately, I hit one of the guide wires while chronographing, knocked it out of its receptacle hole in the chronograph. The wire is bent as heck but, the chronograph (ProChrono) appears undamaged and seems to be working well; registering velocities just fine. I had a spare guide rod knowing the likelihood that this may happen someday and it reattached just fine.
Would you return it to the manufacturer for a checkout just in case?
I want to replace these guide wires with wooden dowls. Would you know a source for these?
