Shop ballistics and shooting tools at No Boring Guns for precision measurement and firearm maintenance. European inventory includes ballistic chronographs, weather meters, suppressor alignment rods, and reaction blocks for competitive shooters and serious enthusiasts.
Precision shooting requires accurate data. Whether zeroing optics, developing handloads, or confirming ballistic performance, measurement equipment transforms guesswork into repeatable results. Ballistics and shooting tools provide the objective information needed for consistent accuracy at distance, proper suppressor installation, and documented velocity data for long range calculations.
Choosing Ballistic Gear
Chronograph Technology
Optical chronographs use light screens to detect projectile passage, requiring consistent lighting conditions for reliable operation. Electromagnetic systems from manufacturers like Garmin function in any light, including indoor ranges, by detecting magnetic field disruption as bullets pass sensors. Consider shooting environment – outdoor-only versus all-conditions capability – when selecting technology. Electromagnetic units generally cost more but eliminate lighting variables.
Data Recording and Connectivity
Basic chronographs display velocity per shot. Advanced models calculate statistical strings – standard deviation, extreme spread, average velocity – automatically. Bluetooth connectivity allows data transfer to ballistic apps for immediate trajectory solutions. Internal memory storage permits extended shooting sessions without mobile devices. Shooters developing handloads benefit most from statistical functions and data logging.
Weather Instrumentation
Handheld weather meters integrate multiple sensors – some combine anemometer, thermometer, barometer, and hygrometer functions. Compact units from brands like Calypso Instruments, fit in shooting bags for field measurements at firing positions. Impeller-based anemometers measure wind speed mechanically, while ultrasonic versions have no moving parts. Long range shooters prioritize compact, durable units with clear displays readable in bright sunlight.
Alignment and Maintenance Tools
Suppressor alignment rods match bore diameter and thread into muzzle devices or directly into barrel threads. Quality rods maintain concentricity along their length without flex. Visual inspection through mounted suppressor reveals centering. Reaction blocks from manufacturers like Geissele cradle barrel extensions or rail systems, distributing torque stress during assembly. Material quality matters – aluminum blocks risk deformation under improper torque application.
