When I got involved in field target 7-8 years ago I started making dope charts on paper. Type em up, print em out, laminate em with tape, and then tape them to the gun on the same side as my cheek weld. I shortly thereafter started doing the some on my hunting rigs. Works a treat. Range, reference the dope sheet, SHOOT! Can be done very quickly.

Sometimes I get to the sight in range in Phoenix and I'll need to re-adjust my zero a click or two. Not only that sometimes my dope needs to be tweeked a little bit even though the zero is, or has been, corrected. That usually means I need change the velocity a little in the app, or possibly the BC too, to get my numbers to line up with actual trajectory. I even use Density Altitude to help compensate for altitude change from where I live at 6700ft. I know from past times when my dope was slightly off it'd get me in trouble.

Ha, Cole was my squad mate last month and he saw how my phone got hot and my app wouldn't work so I had to restart my phone and it worked again which is a negative to using a app.

Could still print out different charts for the different velocities but I haven't - yet.

Working on getting the various struggles figured out.

I adjusted my Uragan King 25 cal down to 49 fpe yesterday to see how it'd shoot with the 29gr NSA's. Not bad but not great either, however it was 15 mph winds which might have caused the 2" of vertical at 100Y but I'd like to get it down to 1.25" vertical.
The neat thing is I could shoot the whole Full Monty without a refill, the gun is almost silent, and it's a repeater. I might just shoot it in January to see how it goes.
