SOLD/EXPIRED Quick Field Review Of My New Garmin Zero C1 Chronograph

[fmuguira]

Veteran, is the Garmin sensitive to barrel height when sitting next to rifle on bench??

I know LabRadar unit needs to be fairly close ( middle of unit) to barrel height. Thus bag , shooting rest height comes into play with LR….
Thx for sharing info/experience.

The owners manual recommends
for bow and pistol that you shoot 5 to 15 inches above the device.

For Rifle 5 to 15 inches behind muzzle and off to the side if on bench 5 to 15 inches. (Im fairly certain you could be 5 to 15 inches above it w rifle too.)

It does say that you want 5 ft. seperation to the nearest shooter.
Otherwise it is possible to record their shot. Generally most ranges would have 5 ft. or more between benches I think. Nothing I have read or seen though indicates too much sensitivity to other shooters, but if they are 2 ft. from you yes, it could be a problem.

So it will not work with a I Phone 6?

Dont know how far back on the I phone platform Shotview App is compatible?

Thats what you will have to find out.

Is Shotview App compatible back to I phone 6?

I don't believe it's compatible with iPhone 6. I believe I read iOS 15 and above. Ironic- I could only find one in stock at an archery shop as well. It's on the way to my house!

One of the unintended benefits of a muzzle break. People normally don't want to be within 5 feet.

I'll keep my lab radar, at least for now. Wind has never blown it over and it always works. The Garmin may need a larger footprint in the wind. Competition is a good thing however
