Any recommendations for an indoor chronograph.

Mine just took a dump and is no longer made.
My indoor range is only 50 feet, so I don't think a radar unit like the Garmin is going to work.

What did you have? I have an older Caldwell shoot through sunshade type one in the garage somewhere collecting dust. If that would fit the bill you could have it just pay shipping.

I had a Chrony "Master" that has the LED overhead lighting built into the sun shades. It also has a remote display, so the chrono can sit down range, but the display is on a screen back at the shooting position. It was similar to the way my 80's vintage Oehler 33 worked....except this one has lighted screens.

The Garmin will work just fine. It picks up arrows shot at 7 yards and .22LR shot at 25 yards.

The minimum for the garmin is 20y. It will work.

Another option still with amazing accuracy is magnetospeed.

Between the muzzle and the bullet trap, I have about 17 yards.
It's a fairly narrow 7 foot wide hallway.

I have a MagnetoSpeed V3 for sale, pretty cheap ($125, shipped) if that interests you.

ah. You said 50 ft. Sorry. I'm conditioned to read yards or meters.

Our bow tech has used my Garmin successfully many times inside at our 45ft range.

Tony,
I'll ship you my Garmin to try if you want before making a purchase. Just let me know.

Wow! That's quite an offer Dave, but I already ordered a Garmin and bought the MagnetoSpeed from HandgunHTR.
If the Garmin doesn't work in my indoor setup, I'll just use it at my hunting cabin. I have a Labrader at the cabin, but I have a lot of trouble with it.
