Garmin Xero C1 Pro Chronograph
"The Garmin Xero C1 Pro has completely changed the game when it comes to chronographs. No fiddling with alignment or light sensitivity—just set it down, shoot, and get reliable data. Whether you're tuning a load, checking factory ammo, or zeroing a new rig, this compact little unit gives you accurate velocity readings without the hassle. Built tough and packed with smart features, it's become a go-to tool for shooters who take their data seriously." - Thomas (Online Sales Associate & Product Specialist).


The Xero® C1 Pro chronograph makes ballistics calculations easy. This compact device fits in your back pocket, measures projectile velocities from 100 fps to 5,000 fps and provides the data you need to refine your equipment. Setup is simple and intuitive, thanks to the button-operated design. Compare velocity for every shot fired, track deviation and more in the ShotView™ smartphone app. It’s built to last, thanks to its IPX7 water-resistant rating. With up to 7 hours of battery life, you’ll have plenty of time at the range.
Comes complete with 1/4-20 thread tripod as shown in the gallery
The Xero® C1 Pro Chronograph requires approximately 20 yards to track fast moving projectiles, like rifle bullets, accurately. Slower, bigger projectiles (for example 9mm bullets or arrows) require less distance. Arrows can typically be tracked in approximately 7 yards, for example an indoor archery range.
