Mine is a Chrony
I didn't know Oehler no longer made chronographs. Since when? And why did they discontinue?quote:Originally posted by Iowegan
I use this chronograph the most because it is a fraction the cost of my Oehler (they no longer make chronographs) should a bullet stray.
Thanks for the info. Yes, I do see the point. $100 unit would be all I'd need.quote:Originally posted by Iowegan
No doubt, the $100 chronographs drove them out of business. Oehler makes fine equipment but you do pay dearly for it. For the bulk of us reloaders, a $100 unit will work just fine.
Oehler is still in business, why would you think they're out of business? Oehler stopped production due to problems getting printers for the 35P. They're trying to find/make a printer that will work with the 35P. If you find a new or good used chronograph they still have everything to do warranty work on it or sell you spare parts if you need them.quote:Originally posted by Iowegan
Yes, Oehler quit making chronographs earlier this year. They still make a lab quality unit and are now into piezo pressure measuring equipment (for measuring chamber pressure).
