FX True Ballistic Radar Chronograph Accurate Rifle & Airgun Speeds
True Ballistic Velocity Meter
- All-weather radar technology
- Spacious LCD display
- Detection of subsonic yardage
- Velocity Range: 400 - 4000 fps
- Power Source: Lithium battery powered with USB-C charging port
The FX Precision Ballistic Chronometer offers a comprehensive solution to assess the performance of your firearms.
Traditional chronographs can be awkward to set up, unreliable in poor light, and easy to damage. The FX True Ballistic Radar Chronograph solves those problems by using radar technology to measure projectile speed accurately without firing through sensors.
Designed for both airguns and firearms, it delivers fast, consistent velocity readings with minimal setup — ideal for shooters who want reliable data without hassle.
With efficiency and ease of use in mind, the chronometer has dimensions akin to an A4 sheet making it very easy to read.
Its advanced Doppler Radar system enables precise measurement of velocities spanning from 400 to 4000 FPS.
Notably, this chronometer serves a dual purpose by delivering insights into both velocity and muzzle energy, featuring an integrated BC calculator for seamless calculations.
Powered by a lithium battery with a convenient USB-C charging port, you get uninterrupted operation.
Additionally, it seamlessly synchronizes with smartphone applications through wireless connectivity, allowing you to effortlessly access statistical data and visual representations.
If you want a modern radar-based chronograph that gives you accurate velocity data without the inconvenience or risk of traditional skyscreen systems then this is for you

- FX True Ballistic Rifle and Airgun Radar Chronograph
Q: What makes a radar chronograph different from a traditional optical chronograph?
A: A radar chronograph measures projectile speed using radar tracking rather than optical sensors or skyscreens. This means you don’t need to shoot through the unit, alignment is simpler, and readings are not affected by lighting conditions.
Q: Why is radar more reliable than skyscreen chronographs?
A: Optical chronographs rely on light passing over sensors, which can cause errors in bright sun, low light, or inconsistent conditions. Radar tracking works independently of light, producing more consistent results across indoor and outdoor environments.
Q: Is this chronograph safe to use with powerful rifles?
A: Yes. Because the projectile does not pass through the device, there is no risk of striking the unit. This makes it safer to use with high-powered air rifles, rimfire, and centrefire rifles compared to traditional gate-style chronographs.
Q: Can this be used with air rifles as well as firearms?
A: Yes. The FX True Ballistic Radar Chronograph is designed for both airguns and firearms, making it suitable for air rifle tuning, FAC airgun power checks, rimfire testing, and centrefire load development.
Q: How close does the unit need to be to the muzzle?
A: The unit is positioned near the muzzle according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Exact placement ensures reliable radar tracking while remaining safely offset from the projectile path.
Q: Does it work indoors or on covered ranges?
A: Yes. Because it does not rely on ambient light, the radar system works well indoors, under cover, or in shaded outdoor ranges where optical chronographs often struggle.
Q: What type of data does it provide?
A: The chronograph provides accurate projectile velocity readings, which can be used to calculate consistency, extreme spread, and support ballistic calculations when paired with appropriate software or ballistic apps.
Q: Is this suitable for tuning air rifles and checking power limits?
A: Yes. It’s particularly useful for air rifle tuning, allowing shooters to confirm velocity changes after regulator, hammer spring, or pellet adjustments without complex setup.
Q: How easy is it to set up compared to traditional chronographs?
A: Setup is significantly faster. There are no skyscreens to assemble, no need to align shots through narrow gates, and less trial-and-error positioning. Most users find it quicker and less stressful to use.
Q: Does it replace ballistic calculators?
A: No. The chronograph provides real-world velocity data, which can then be entered into ballistic calculators for trajectory and drop predictions. Accurate input data improves ballistic accuracy.
Q: Is it portable enough for range and field use?
A: Yes. The compact design makes it easy to transport and set up at the range or in the field without bulky frames or stands.
Q: Who is this chronograph best suited for?
A: It’s ideal for:
-
Airgun shooters tuning power and consistency
-
Reloaders and precision shooters developing loads
-
Hunters verifying real-world muzzle velocities
-
Shooters who want safer, simpler chronograph use
Q: When might a traditional chronograph still be sufficient?
A: If you only need occasional rough velocity checks and already have a working optical chronograph, a radar system may not be essential. The FX True Ballistic is aimed at shooters who value ease, safety, and repeatability.
