Thread: Old school hunting

Greetings,
One thing that is well below old prices is chronographs. Over 30 years back (1991) I bought an Oehler 35P chronograph which cost $849.00. They are still made today, possibly upgraded a bit and cost in NZ roughly $1700.00. In the latest NZ Hunter Greg reports favourably on the new Garmin chronograph, cost $1,200.00. The damned thing is small enough to put in your pocket which beats my 4 foot screen spacing and tripod. The 35P is safe in my cupboard though as it works for me and the proof channel gives me confidence in its output. Yes it is cranky about light conditions but being retired I can wait for the right conditions.
Regards Grandpamac.
