HankB, what kind of details are useful in a notebook?
Hemicuda pretty much summed it up. When I'm developing a new load, I also include chronograph data, group size, measurement of the pressure ring, and any observations about things like sticky extraction or leaking gas around the primer pocket. (Ummm . . . these last may be indications that you've got a serious pressure problem, and you'd better back off and re-evaluate what's going on.)

For loads I've already worked up and standardized on, I just record component type, powder charge, OAL, and date loaded.
