Jak se Mate, Petra! You will get an incorrect projectile reading with the barrel muzzle so close to the chronograph. Doesn't matter if it's a 300 Win Mag or an air gun. Safe distance is usually about 6 feet or 2 meters from the muzzle for an accurate reading. Nice design though! ;) dave

That is a great idea, do you have close ups of how you mounted it to the ZlDC ?

Hi Wil I just wrapped gorilla tape around the end of the ldc till it fit snug in the chrony tube. It only goes in so far.

Will it measure a 22 Cal pellet at about 950fps ?

Yep! Measure my AirMax Dominator .22 out to 1065 fps. The chrony has a bunch of settings for pellet size and weight in gram.

Yes FX chrono is a pain, simplicity is important, tired of rubber bands on my 625 (I think it’s called).

Like you did, I’ll  wrap the end in Duct Tape and that is it !!!!

Should receive it in about 5 working days.

Up to now I have not noticed “Err”  on display and read-through  values seams to be OK.  May be also LDC clean up ineligible minims from air flow.  To add the chrony/200g  directly on muzzle may effect. POI. 
But  Thanks a lot for caution. I will imbedding  the gun as far as possible.

Michael, Next  radar chrony doesn`t work OK ?

It works ok but I really like having it attached to the ldc when shooting. i would have to tape it to the ldc. then screw it and the ldc on the airgun. Doesn't 't look as good as the way as the way I have the cheap chrony mounted.
