I have used chronographs from many manufacturers. Until recently they all required laborious activity to set them up and align them with the shooting location, chronograph and target. The X1 eliminates those actions. Turn it on, enter some data, place in your shooting bench and commence firing. Your expected information is calculated and is displayed immediately. Fantastic !

Third chronograph I've owned. Easiest to set up at the range; it's never missed capturing a shot; all while being user friendly! I love it. It's perfect!!

Never missed a shot. Easy to use. Great features. Very safe to use and will never accidentally shoot it.

I have used this with four different guns and it works flawlessly. I appreciate the long battery life and the interface to the mobile app works well

Used my son's Xero C1 Pro first. So impressed had to get one for myself. If you want to shoot longer distances accurately or perform hand load workups then this tool is for you. I utilizes doppler radar to give highly accurate results including speed, avg, ES, and SD and links to an I-phone too.

I own a LabRadar , Caldwell and (accidentally shot) a Competiton Electronics. This is by far the best. Setup is a breeze. Even on a wobbly table that moves when shooting, it picked up the shots. Labradar is good but finicky. Nothings perfect, it did pick up ONE shot out of a hundred from my tripod mounted rifle, 6 feet to to left or unit. App let me ignore that shot, so as not to skew the data. App is simple but works and is way better than others.

Only had the C1 Pro a few weeks but it is an incredible piece of tech! Fits in my range bag with room to spare. No more lugging around another bag for my old school chrono. The C1 pro does everything my old chrono did way more forgiving set up and just as or more accurate. Thanks Garmin for a great product!

I would give it a 10, but hat wasn't an option. Great product. Turn it on, point at the target, and start shooting. It's that simple. Download the app and you can keep the information for history. Best chronograph out there!!!!!

The portability makes the useability seem like a bonus! I plan to use this every time I go shooting. My only suggestion would be an easier way to annotate shooting sessions.

I picked this Chrono up about a month ago. It is the easiest Chrono I've seen to a set up and use. The buttons and navigation of the settings and set up are very easy to do. I was also really surprised by the size. I mean I've seen pictures of it, but actually seeing it beside the rifle made it look even smaller. I have used it on several center-fire rifles, a couple .22 rifle and pistols, and even a muzzle loader and it read everything fine. I'm absolutely blown away with the ease of use, setup, and portability of the Garmin Xero C1 Pro Chronograph.

I own a LabRadar. I bought the Garmin initially to be my backup chronograph. Having used both extensively, the Garmin is more portable and easier to use than my LabRadar. My Garmin is now my "go to" chronograph and my LabRadar is now a backup!

I've owned several chronographs including Magneto speed and labradar this is by far the best and easiest to use

I am not a techno person and was able to get this up and running in silly short amount of time. It's light weight and sets up like a breeze. Turn it on and immediately you're getting bullet data feedback.

After some research on similar dollar products and other chronographs. This one is the best choice. Simple to use, reliable, doesn't have issues with cloud cover or heavy rain and wind. I have ran thunderbolt .22 up to 45-70 and many calibers in between. No issues. The app on the phone allows more refined session detail than using the Xero C1 by itself. Not having to shoot through it is a huge bonus as well. The Xero is small light weight and charges quickly.

I haven't chrono's that strap on to the muzzle, bunny ear's and everything in between. I didn't want get a large setup that performed similar to this in nature as it was to much to lug around. In come the C1 and wow couldn't be simpler to setup, take 5 seconds to config and start shooting. Been shooting pellet guns, arrows, to .50 cal. Never missed a beat. Highly recommend if you are thinking about it, don't look back.

I have had this product for a couple of months now. Weather hasnt been conducive to the range so I was very excited to be able to try it out. Man am I impressed. This this is super simple to setup and go. From breaking it out of the range bag to the fully setup and ready to go was 30 seconds. A bit of advice before your first trip to the range. Make sure you download the Garmin app on your smart phone. You don't have to have it but it makes operation more convenient. The app also lets you run firmware updates. I would definitely purchase this product again. Worth every penny and much simpler, easier to use and compact than other competitors options.

Great tool for verifying reload data, identifying bad factory ammo and building dope charts. It is possible to shoot faster than the unit can record data would be my only complaint.

This is the first chronograph I've ever had so I have nothing to compare it to but I've been really happy with it. I've used it on rifles pistols and bow, it has worked great been very consistent and never dropped a shot. Setup and use is very simple and easy to use.

I've used this three times now and compared them against two other units and find it to be extremely accurate. It is compact easy to store in a hard case and takes up half the room of my previous chronograph. I will update as to its longevity on down the road, thank you.

I have had an Oehler 35P and it has served me well. Then I bought the first available radar type system, so I didn't have to set-up equipment beyond the firing line. My first radar system was a bit cumbersome and not without issues and need for aftermarket parts to make it work more reliably. I never liked the thought of hanging something on my barrel either. This Xero C1 Pro is the ticket. The Xero C1 Pro fits in my shirt pocket when headed to the range, populates to my phone and can be downloaded to computer. The Xero C1 Pro catches every shot and calculates the most useful information about my loads. I could not have made a better purchase as far as a radar type chronograph goes.

I bought mine about one month ago from zeurooptic. I truly enjoying the easy operation of the device. The only thing is; the UPDATE is does not seem to be working as per manual. I only able to downloaded at the original set up. The apps indicated the current update version, but I Caan not update the new version to my device. Please advise. Thank you. Gratefully, Kenneth Wong

You set it on the bench and it picks up all your shots with no hassle. I love this thing.

I've been looking at chronographs for a couple years and couldn't decide based on cost and ease of use. Was borrowing the brand M but painful to set up at times. Changing shims to get to consistent measurements and having to load extras just in case it didn't read. Can't use it with revolvers. Looked at brand L and those seem hit or miss. Truly love or hate depending on who you talk to and the day they use it. Looked at the shoot thru optical and just wasn't intered in buying multiple. Also you have to buy extras just to get going. Looked at other radar units and they are expensive. Some seem quirky and questionable support. Watched a ton of videos on the Xero. Not only does the production unit work but the app works amazing like all Garmin products. No dropped shots yet in 500 rounds. It also comes with a small tripod, nothing else to buy before you can use it. I wish they reased this years ago and saved me a lot of aggravation and wasted component. The size is a huge win also, this was smaller than I was expecting. (I wish you made a good storage case with and without the tripod, hint hint.)
