so before I begin, I'm not a technological dinosaur, but I do use a "dumb" phone, rather than a smart phone...
... I'm looking at just relaxing & having some fun with my bolt action rifles, at home, on my personal rifle range ( I have several threads going about scopes, & reticles already ) I've been thinking about adding a card to each rifle, with ballistics settings for the caliber / load, & scope for each rifle, with info for wind drift, temps, & elevation adjustments, etc...
curious what you long range shooters use, & what info you put on a card, or keep with the rifle... if you have a ballistic program "ap" on your phone, is why I started by stating I have a "dumb" phone...
I shoot ( right now ) from 50 - 300 yards, & have center fire bolt action rifles that that range from 17 Fireball to 416 Rigby... I have the ability, later down the road, to use a portable shooting stand, & push my range to 600-700 yards... I'm wanting to improve my skills with light, medium & heavy cartridges, doping for wind, & adjusting & getting used to shooting at longer distances, so I'd be using more than 1-2 rifles, so keeping some info at hand seems like a good idea
my thoughts are laminating a few small tags & ball chaining them to a scope base, or some out of the way spot, to keep the info with the rifle
