Full working order, only selling due to an upgrade.

The sunshades are intact with a spare set in the lighting kit, but are only needed on bright days with lots of glare.

The connection cable needs to be fully plugged in because the telephone type plugs have lost their retaining clip.

The indoor lighting kit has not been used, although it has 220v on the box, it was never supplied with bulbs.

£55 please, UK postage RM tracked, or face to face at Bisley.

Any info or additional photos please ask via the thread.

Thanks for looking.

Out of interest what did you upgrade to and why eg what features were important? Thanks.

Hi 2021
Thanks for your message, at the risk of putting Lone Wolf off, I will answer here, as others might benefit from the comparison.
I replaced the Shooting Chrony with a Labradar five years ago. I kept the Crony as a backup, because at the time Labradar was relatively new. As it turned out, the Lab was reliable, so the Chrony moved deeper to the back of the cupboard until I finally decided to make some space.
The Chrony offers similar recording and download features to the Lab, they just use different technologies, and both can be operated from the firing position. My primary reason for change was setup convenience on a busy firing point, as you do not need to go forward to position the Lab.
For all its convenience, the Lab can be sensitive to position, the Chrony is not so sensitive to position, but you are at risk of shooting it, and when the sun shines directly on the sensors, they need to be shaded.
I’m not a fan of barrel mounted Chronographs, particularly on large calibre rifles due to fitting, recoil and PoI issues, but they are another convenient option on a busy firing point.
I hope this helps.
