Classic example of why a LOT of site chrono’s aren’t to be trusted . You chrono on your own that lives in its box and only comes out every now and again to test your guns then gets put away safely because it’s bloody expensive! AND the site chrono ? Oh that gets dug out of the cupboard some pimply faced kid sets it up on an oil drum and everyone on site has to rely on it AND then it gets slung back in the cupboard until the next gameday ! ?‍

What got me was they use this janky Xcoretech chrono...fine!  it's their site, their rules, their chrono....but in the afternoon they pulled out another chrono for random testing and guess what... I set my MTW to 328fps on 0.2's in the morning and in the afternoon it was shooting at 285fps and the other chrono.

I still had fun though and on 0.36's today I was still getting good range...

But was a bit miffed by their shitty chrono...was not the only one complaining that their chrono was pants.  I even offered them my Acetech one to use..

this is why i take exception to "you're 1fps over mate hot gun" type sites, show me the calibration demonstrating the years of schrapnel from tube strikes hasn't screwed up the readings......

did they say anything about it after they dug out their other chrono?

No just ignored me and kept quiet...I think they knew they upset a few people as a few guns got put back in cars in the morning....that would've been fine if they used the other chrono..my G&G AEG included...just glad I brought the HPA with me otherwise it would've been a wasted day.  BAckup guns make so much sense now. 

damn right, i mean anyone not using an hpa who knows how to take care of their guns would not be happy.

wouldn't be surprised to hear some folk had to walk, and i doubt they'd be motivated to come back.

Can you mention the site name so we know to be ready with a backup...?

Seriously daft move by the site.
