    FX Outdoors - Chronograph

    Was watching a Youtube video from someone covering new stuff at the 2023 Shot Show. One item that interested me was a new doppler radar Chronograph, from a company FX Outdoors. A very compact, easily set up unit. They were saying it would come into the market lower priced that Lab Radars product. Does anybody know if there is a NZ agent and if so, what access they have to these ?
    Cheers

    Great for load development/shooting with subs

    Apparently good for any calibre which is why I'm interested. The guy says for "up to as big as you want to shoot". Take a look at the video I watched. FX Outdoors, starts at minute 4:39

    Looks good, got the Air rifle one which has been awesome. Normal chonies are not that good for air rifles, this would do it all, so interested.

    I have a FX chronograph. It only goes up to 1100 fps. As it sits behind the muzzle it should not get damaged by a centrefire. I've used it with subsonic blackout loads as well as for air rifles.
