rsc1960 Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Just watched this being set up and used on you tube, May I ask if anyone has one,or the v1. And if so what's your thoughts, I think for £375 for the v3 it's a tad to much but the v1 is cheaper and my well be worth me holding out for one, Thanks RSC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbal Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 A ''sporter model' is in the pipeline-imminent-$200,so ballpark £200? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1967spud Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 we are retaling them at 200 as yousay George they are in the country now available from either me or Gary c at march scopes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcampbellsmith Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Excellent kit. When I consider the number of wasted trips with screen based chronos, I've probably paid for this chrono 3 or 4 times over already. Regards JCS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 The V3 is worth every penny, I can't fault it. I'm sure the "Sporter" will be an excellent chrono albeit with a reduced spec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsc1960 Posted April 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 we are retaling them at 200 as yousay George they are in the country now available from either me or Gary c at march scopes Mark Can you drop me a link for the specs, it's for the use on the rifles below and can you confirm it's £200 if so what's the shipping costs, and is that Gary cooper of mtc or march scopes?

dannywayoflife Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 I got a v3 second hand and it's worth every penny! I find it crucial for proper load dev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I LIKE THAT I THINK I'LL SAVE THE CASH FROM MY BINO SALE AND GO FOR THE SPOTER FROM MARK, SORRY IF THIS IS CAP LOCK I CAN'T FIND HOW TO TURN IT BACK OFF ....?

MJR Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Press the caps lock button again? V3 I have no experience of but I do have a V2 and find it does everything I want it to and is very easy to set up both with or without a sound moderator fitted.

gunnery Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 can the Sporter model be used with a mod on or do you have to buy the V3 thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbal Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 I think the sporter is for up to 1" barrels-the specs were on Accurate Shooter earlier this week. gbal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1967spud Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 yes to 1" but a 1.25 will just fit but just Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 The sporter is not suitable for moderators although it can be used with muzzle brakes - for moderator/suppressor use you need the V3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsc1960 Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 The sporter is not suitable for moderators although it can be used with muzzle brakes - for moderator/suppressor use you need the V3. I wonder if it could be modified to fit ?, I would like to be able to test rifles with the moderator fitted RSC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 I wonder if it could be modified to fit ?, I would like to be able to test rifles with the moderator fitted RSC. Surely the simplest option would be just get a V3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1971silversurfer Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I plumped for a V3 from Spud...never regretted it yet, money well spent.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBenelliM1 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I bought a second hand V1 from a gent on here. Never used a chronograph before but found it very easy to set up and get data from etc. I used it last night on my .308 (new load) without moderator at 100yds. Put the moderator back on and zeroed the rifle. Moved back to 380yds, put the data into iStrelok with new recorded FPS and got a near perfect first hit. Can't get much simpler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montey Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 I got the v3 from March Scopes great bit of kit . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longbow3 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 I have the V2 and it does the job, but last time out I struggled to get it to work. phoned company and they advised me to run a system reset. bought the V3 for a Belgian client last week and we got a shock when it came flying off his .270 WSM thankfully it was just the recoil and it wasn't damaged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnery Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 I had the chance to try a sporter yesterday very basic but very good I think in this day and age technology can run away with you the sporter is basic but it gives you MV,ES,SD,LOW AND HIGH and saves up to 100 of your last shots you can also buy a lead which plugs into your iphone and download your infor onto the phone for me I don't need much more than that for the money I think they will sell well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munkjack Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Does the v1 fit over a mod? by the sounds of JDB post it doesn't wich is annoying as I was just about to commit to buying one!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywayoflife Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 The sporter only works with barrels up to 1.2" i "think" I run mods on all my guns so had to go v3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
