New to rifles here with a USPSA background. I do handload and am dialing things in the best (consistent) I can with my limited experience with rifle cartridges. Currently I started with a few ballistic programs to get a ballpark to start with like 4DOF, BalisticARC and JBM. I pretty much only use BallisticARC currently to avoid any confusion yutzing around with crap. I've been using weaponized math/try dope to build my DOPE as best I can until I get to some formal training.
Would I best be served getting a Kestrel for measuring environmentals or a chrono first? Or am I better off to get some training before I reinforce any bad habits and generate my DOOPE in the meantime, slow and deliberate like dry fire practice, on paper? End goal is to feel out PRS style matches and gauge interest before I go full ham on a proper rig. Thank you in advance for any input. My apologies if I'm in the wrong subforum too.
