Range cards and calculators

I wanted to share an observation on one of the free online ballistic calculators I found prior to my latest class.

...then one needs to read the data correctly.

:-) very true.... zero stop features are super handy for getting back to your 100 if you've lost where you are. But yeah, putting the right dope on the scope will increase the chances of a hit DRAMATICALLY vs missing it by 6 MOA :-). I can see though how easy it can be to forget or throw on the wrong number. Trying to work on a habit myself for getting to a new line or yardage and putting the right dope on before even getting behind the rifle.....what I'm not so good about is taking it out and returning to zero before moving again. Practice I guess.

I highly recommend this one:

and grab 'Excel Ballistic Calculator'

Thank you for the link, Read a little about it on the page but I'll print off a card and see how close it comes. Quite a few people during these past few classes did have ipad/phone/palm apps. I suspect the actual phone/device would be less useful in the field but if it uses excel then they are easy enough to print.
