Oehler 35p....
Too much $?
P.A.C.T. Professional.
Really doesn’t matter as they all work the same...
I only use PACT for accurate readings. We clock shots up to 4000 fps powder. Albeit air guns or Belted Magnum cartridges.... Expanding gasses from the mussel can be easily misread and alter the actual velocity of the projectile. Airguns, inparticular, are notoious for this. All manufacturers suggest you have the Windscreen sensors be set at least 6 feet from the mussel to alleviate this problem. If you really want to know what you're actually clocking.....spend the bucks! JMHO dave

I run the V-3 Chrono from Magnetospeed, for the last 3+ yrs
https://magnetospeed.com/products/v3-ballistic-chronograph
.
It is a little more expensive than the rest, but, It has features that that work, Day or Night, (With NO additional lights needed),
will fit just about most firearms/air guns, if you have different configuration of the muzzle/bbl, you can easily make,
a slightly different spacer etc.
This chrono will read airguns 17 cal and up, any CF rifle/shotgun, and the longer bbl'd handguns,
thru all types of weather conditions etc.
Comes in a very handy package, with EVERYTHING needed, no extra equipment to lug around,
can install and use while behind the firing line, day or night usable..............
Tia,
Don
