Switch on your FX chronograph and choose it once. After that it is remembered, and velocities appear as they happen — captured, kept, and organised into strings that still make sense a month later.
Film the string and each shot's number appears on the frame where it was fired, with a closing card carrying the string's statistics. If the overlay lands a beat early or late, nudge it. One take can cover several strings — including a ladder you split afterwards.
On a Pocket Pro, a rifle rolled by a degree or more gets its cant burned in beside the velocity — the one thing on the frame that would explain a shot that went sideways.
Tap NEW STRING and the boundary is drawn immediately — no setup screen between you and the next shot. Afterwards you can still split a string at any shot, move a stray round back to the group it belonged to, or type in one the radar never heard.
Forget to press it? A long gap between shots gets noticed, and the app offers a boundary rather than assuming one.
An SD from five shots is barely a number. FX Chrono Connect shows you the range the true value is actually in, and tells you how many more rounds it would take to tighten it — so you stop chasing a tune that was noise.
Put two strings side by side and it says plainly whether the difference is real or inside the uncertainty. Extreme spread is labelled for what it is: a figure that grows with shot count and only compares between strings of the same length.
The drop table runs from this string's own measured average. A Pocket Pro or True Ballistic reports a ballistic coefficient per shot, and the solver corrects it for the air on the day — the same air it fetches from MET Norway if you ask, or that you type in yourself.
Your zero is held fixed, so today's weather can never quietly re-zero your rifle. Hand the whole load over to FieldSolve when you want a full solution.
Take a picture, mark two points a known distance apart, drop the aim point, and tap the holes. The millimetres are measured rather than assumed — a grid square, a case head, a ruler laid on the target, anything you know the size of.
Out comes the group size and, more useful, exactly what to dial to centre it — in MOA and mil, both, because your scope only speaks one of them.
No account, no upload, no subscription. Capture, history, group measurement, video and export all work with the phone in flight mode — which is roughly what a range is anyway.
FX Chrono Connect reaches the App Store and Google Play this fall.
