What Logbook do you guys recommend?

[bjm417]

Hey folks, what logbooks would you guys recommend for someone who is mostly doing work to get ready for hunting season and a couple of tactical courses? I don't intend to do any PRS matches (not in an area where they are convenient). Mostly looking to log rounds through the rifle, ammo differences, weather condition effects, etc.
I will not be getting into reloading. I hope. I already have way too many hobbies.

If not sure what you need these are very inexpensive and cover the features you listed:

Rite in The Rain DOPE Logbook

I had an article published recently on two data books that I bought, looking for something that wasn't as complex and expensive as a traditional data book but still provided a structured format for data collection. I picked up a Rite In The Rain logbook and a Storm Tactical pocket rimfire data...

Don’t waste money on a actual log book.

Jot down data or use your phone excel, notes, pics, voice record etc

When home from the range put it in a spreadsheet

Books are nice but if you want to correlate information from different days and conditions your using a spreadsheet anyway.

When you have good data print out a few cards if you dont want to use a kestrel/electronic device in the field.

If you want to keep a log book just order a rite in the rain from Jeff Bezos and set it up to your liking. Lots of log books just have so many specialized pages that you will either spend a lot of time filling out pages or you won't use 98% of them.

Impact Data Books is the best choice if wanting a book. You can get the pages you want in the sizes you want and in either rite in the rain or standard paper.

ETA Also get a round count book to keep track of your round count on the barrel. I have one for every barrel I use.

I use the "Strategic Edge Precision Rifle Data Book" and really like how it's laid out. Using a book allows you to take it to the range with you and look back at earlier range sessions.
This used to be available on Amazon but it looks like it is gone from that source, you may have to contact Strategic Edge directly.

I just saw this that might be of some use to you but won't answer your original question.

Why the Strategic Edge Precision Rifle Data Book Is a Must Have

Experienced precision rifle shooters know that gathering DOPE (Data On Previous Engagement) for specific rifles and loads is a critical
