View full detailsPaintball chronographs are very important to the safety of the players as they are used to test the velocity of each paintball gun before it is used in a game. Most paintball facilities will test the speed of the paintball and keep the velocity under 285 or 300 feet per second. This speed is roughly 200 miles per hour when converted. When a paintball gun shoots over this speed the paintballs tend to break or not shoot straight and could also harm a person if shot close up. The paintball chronographs cost between one hundred and three hundred dollars depending on the brand and the features available in the unit. If you have any questions about getting a chronograph for your own personal use or for your paintball field, our staff is ready to help find which chronograph will best fit your needs and budget.

Chronograph is a very important safety tool for paintball players. It is how we are able to regulate what speed we have to shoot at for the day of play at any paintball field! This device reads how fast the paintball is projecting out of the barrel so you can adjust up or down if needed. Many different companies make or sell a chronograph, Empire and Virtue are two of the main ones who offer such a thing to the average player. There are other brands and styles out there, like some of the ones you may have seen at your local paintball field. Those are typically made of metal and usually very heavy to lug around from field to field on a day of play. This is why Empire and Virtue came to the rescue to offer a chronograph to the general paintball public.
Empire teamed up with X-Radar to offer a great portable chronograph to check your speed no matter where you are! This chronograph is very light weight and can be used with one hand. Only thing you need to do is install a 9 volt battery to get started, play the rubber tip of the chronograph 1 inch back from the tip of the barrel, hold the square button above the read out screen and shoot. It will project the FPS (Feet Per Second) on the screen, from here you will either need to make an adjustment up or down to get to the legal speed used at the field you are going to/are at! Most fields are around 275-300FPS, a safe speed to be at if not sure of the field's speed is around 285FPS. This chronograph does read BPS (Balls Per Second) as well. If you do the same as if you were going to test for the FPS, instead of shooting one shot shoot a stream of paintballs and it will give you your BPS! For a small package it offers so much!
