Chronographs

Paintball Chronographs are used to check the speed of paintball guns so that you can set them to a safe velocity. ASTM rules state below 300 feet per second. Most paintball fields use the 285 rule because CO2 can flucuate by 15 degrees easily throughout the day. Setting to 285 and below takes this into account. Using compressed air or nitrogen will make your paintball gun a lot more consistent. There are a few types of chronographs available. You have your small hand held units which are great for refferees to have on the field. The other chronos are great to use for fields.
