Garmin Xero C2 Chronograph (010-03953-00)

Introduction

The Garmin Xero C2 Chronograph is the benchmark for precision measurement in the field, delivering reliable muzzle velocity readings from 100 fps to 5,000 fps across a wide range of projectiles—from rifles and arrows to slugs and airsoft BBs. Its compact, rifle-mountable design fits neatly on your setup, while a reinforced housing and IPX7 rating stand up to recoil and unpredictable outdoor conditions. Real-time data streams to your paired Garmin smartwatch, and the integrated ShotView app lets you manage sessions, monitor live data, and export muzzle velocity to the Applied Ballistics AB Quantum solver. With up to 10 shots per second in rapid-fire mode and a convenient resume feature for separating data between firearms or bows, the Xero C2 keeps you in control from first shot to last. Includes a 1/4-20 tripod thread for bench testing and a rechargeable battery capable of up to 2,000 shots or 6 hours of operation, making long-range days more productive and less interrupted.

Data Insights

The Xero C2 translates muzzle velocity into actionable performance data across a broad range of projectiles, enabling fast, side-by-side load comparisons. Users can capture real-time velocities, feed them into the AB Quantum solver via the Applied Ballistics workflow, and compare results across multiple firearms or bows within separate, clearly organized sessions. The combination of a 100–5,000 fps range, up to 10 shots per second, and a battery capable of 2,000 shots ensures you can complete comprehensive testing days with confidence, while the suppressor-friendly capability expands the range of firearms you can evaluate without changing your setup.

Usage Instructions

Power on the Xero C2, select your mode (rifle or archery), and align the sensor with the muzzle direction. Shoot normally; the device immediately captures velocity data and displays live results on the smartwatch or ShotView app. Use the resume sessions feature to isolate data for each firearm or bow, then save and compare results side-by-side. When finished, disconnect and charge as needed—the unit is designed for quick recharges to minimize range downtime.

Design & Material

The Xero C2 combines a rugged, purpose-built chassis with a compact footprint designed to ride on a rifle or sit securely on a bench. Its durable construction handles the recoil of high-velocity shots while remaining portable enough to carry between ranges. The 1.4-inch backlit display stays readable in bright sun or low light, and the user interface relies on tactile buttons for quick, glove-friendly operation. Suppressor compatibility and a robust tripod mount ensure versatile use in the field and on the bench.

• Reinforced, recoil-resistant housing
• Compact, pocket-friendly form factor
• 1/4-20 tripod thread for versatile mounting
• 1.4-inch backlit display for day or night use
