I have a Prochrono that is over 20 years old, and a Magnetospeed V3 I bought secondhand. I fired 5 shots over both, for 3 of the shots there was only a 1fps difference between the two, IIRC the other...

Yep, the M2 lets you upload to you PC. If you want to do that. IIRC CED has its own PC app. I did upload with my M2 and do with my current chrono. With my old F1 I just wrote the numbers down as I...
