can you use this to check the bullet speed from a Armalite .50 bmg muzzle blast

I can't find anything in the directions that says you can't. Just set it at least 15 feet away from the muzzle blast. I have a friend that has a .50 BMG and he uses his to check it.

Yes you can if you are a good shot. I would keep it at least 20' from the muzzle blast. I would worry about hitting the chronograph. I am a chicken. I would not.

I've never heard of this, but if the gun has some type of mounting railit is possible. Just look at the top of gun and it should tell you.

Yes. Have been using this model scope on .50 caliber muzzleloader for over 5 years. Very pleased with performance of these scopes.

You would need someone with a chronograph to answer that for you. The weight of the pellets you are using would make a big difference in the FPS out of the barrel. Sorry I didn't have a good answer for you.

Yes, as long as it is flying between 30 fps and 7000 fps and it can pass over both sensors. Actually it will have a easier time picking up on a paintball vs a bullet because the paintball is much bigger in size. Now I will caution that you will need to follow the instructions because it will need to set up a certain way if outside vs inside. To make sure nothing will be a surprise or to see additional accessories (like paintball splatter guard) that shooting chrony offers go to their website, manuals are listed there as well.

Sure. If you download the Nikon SpotOn app (http://spoton.nikonsportoptics.com/spoton/spoton.html), it will allow you to set the height above the bore, input your ammunition information, including ballistic coefficient, then tell you which dot on the BDC to use for a specific distance.

Yes its an inexpesive "micrometer" type. It's tricky to mount and the directions are weak. This gun is a fairly expensive toy. It is accurate up to like 10 meters but the velocity is under 350 fps.

Absolutely! I've shot a 50 cal muzzleloader, 308, 12g and even a crossbow from mine! The tray to put a weight plate is very convenient, removes and hop the sled has due to recoil absorption.

YES! It can also be used slug shotguns and up to .460 Weatherby magnums, maybe even .50BMG. The calibration is set using a sight in distance of 50, 100 or 200 yards(meters) and bullet drop.

the speed should show in the gps window . dont know if they make a transducer with speed

No. The trigger needs to be held in to track the speed. The gun is really accurate.

Yes it will tolerate muzzle blast at least it has from my 300 Win Mag, and the digital display is very easy to read. I have enjoyed using my chronograph it's big window insures you won't be damaging the vaiins and reflectors , with that being said I did order an extra set when I ordered the chronograph , feel free to ask any other questions you may have . Good shooting......Dan

No, it would not give you the correct ballistics I would imagine as it is programmed for actual rifle rounds.

If you are reloading .223 and other rifle calibers the answer is yes. I believe this setup provides the powder measure and double disk kit.

It depends on what you are trying to meter. It is not effective on baseball pitching whatsoever but if you want to radar something you can have the gun on for several seconds like a car it seems to be accurate.

think so but do not recall. Works okay but you get what you pay for - turns itself off after a few rounds down range due to vibration of my AR

I bought the scope as a gift for a friend. A BDC will match one specific bullet and velocity. If you use a bullet with a similar ballistic coefficient and velocity the results will be close. I suggest you try plugging some data into a ballistics program(you can find some free online) for a more exact answer.
