Swiss long range shooter

[MrUser]

Hello to all, i'm a new members from Switzerland. I'm an avid collector of old rifles and guns as well as a passionate long rage shooter. I mainly join the forum to discuss few topics in relation to how commercially available technology is impacting shooting but I am sure there will be a lot more to learn!

Have a very good day

I would like to ask for moderator support or the help from members. I would like to start a thread or join one on a fairly specific but generic topic! Tech integration! I am currently shooting many calibers and I am using a number of gadgets. In particular while preparing the shot while I enjoy the "old way" I am using more and more a variety of electronics.

Starting from the kestrel to capture all the basic data, using the terrapin x to measure distance; than entering the data in a ballistic calculator or using the charts of my weapon. As ballistic calculator I have Applied ballistics in the garmin tactix and the kestrell but I sometimes use bullet flight or i do it manually.

When the bullet leaves I record the speeds with the garmin chronograph. I get to the point... what I would like to do is capturing and storing all this in a semi automatic way or fully automatic way. most of these devices speak to one another already. many of them have memory and most of them are optimised to transfer data to applied ballistics.

I don't believe to be the only one that had the "need" to capture data...

So here my request... is it worth to start a new topic or do you have already a generic thread dedicated to this subject? Many thanks in advance for your support!
