FX chronograph questions

[DaveT1]

I started with a Caldwell Chronograph and then graduated to ths FX chrono. One of the things I miss with the FX is the ability to edit the shot strings. With the Caldwell I could delete individual shots in a string and the software would recalculate the average, extreme spread, and the standard deviation. Is there a way to make the FX software make the same adjustments?

Also is there a way to print out the shot string graph?

You can easily delete shots you do not want in the calculations. Just touch the offending shot and slide your finger sideways... at least with android. The program will recalculate.

I haven't done any printing from the program but have sent myself strings.

I use the copy function and text a shot string to myself at the range, which is helpful when I am adjusting HST for desired velocity changes. Also can send a shot string to my email for printing on home computer later.

Side swipe also works with IOS. I edit my shot strings all the time by swiping the entry I want to remove to the left. You can also edit saved shot strings in the same manner.

On the Home Screen there is a button to "clear last" as well. This will delete the previous shot.

This is good information to know for IOS. Have been using FX Radar for almost two years and never knew about this little gem! 

Q. I can guess as to some “reasons” why you might delete a shot, but can you guys enlighten me as to why/when you delete a shot(s)? I realize you can always improve your ES spread by removing a bad shot ( or a shot that has a big FPS variance). Why specifically do you remove shots?

Thanks

I delete shots when I screw up and forget to refill the rifle and start to drop off the regulator. When I hear the shots start to decrease dramatically in feet per second, I realize that I have screwed up. I delete the errant shot and refill the rifle, then. Continue

When I have a shot in a string that is either too high or too low I delete it just to see how the shot affects the stats.

Makes sense. Thanks for clarifying.
