Again with the record keeping: an initial investment of a few bucks for some 1.5” binders, one for each RIFLE/PISTOL (not each caliber) goes a long way. Keeps you from duplicating a sub par load (which will save a few dollars). Additionally, if you decide to sell/trade one of those guns, adding in the data book will sweeten the deal a few dollars worth. Unless you have reams of data in which case it may be evidence of a shot out barrel.
Make your own targets with a data block at the bottom with room for ALL the info. These get the 3 hole punch and go into the binders. Additionally, my targets have a blank space that I tape my chronograph data to.
Once I have a good load figured out, I use playing cards as targets; 5 shot groups on a card. These then get slipped into a cheap plastic 9 per sheet baseball card holders and write the pertinent info on the back of the card. These go in the back of the binder.
