Been wanting one of these for awhile for coyote hunting and PRS type shooting. I was wondering what people are using and what Canadian companies are offering.
 
sportscheck or similar... Football coach/QB's use something VERY similar... Might not be in OD green and say tactical on it, but it will be a lot cheaper...
 
Thanks, The SR is one I was looking at. I would prefer to buy something of similar function and quality from a Canadian maker, if it exists. Hoping more people weigh in.

The issue with using those types, you always have to mess around with cards and such. The armageddon gear one is permanent (until you use alcohol to remove), and you can adjust/change as you go. I'll be grabbing one at the next match I see them at.

Drop your dope sheet in and off to the races, ever weather protected ;)

Unless you cant use a printer and some scissors, or don't understand how to use excel and sizing.... I mean its really tough out here guys.

More like I have #### planning and id forget or mess the card up and have sharpie all over my dope card day of the match about 200 miles away from my printer and laminator.

So in my case this is the better option.

Always have spare dope cards made up.

I have spare dope cards in my Drag bag, my pack, and my dope book.......plus the scope dope on my rifle.
 
I have a dope card on my the side of my rifle, and a really detailed dope card that has data for inclines/declines as well as a ranging card inside.

However, for most stages I just put the info I need on a blank card and put it in the top sleeve. On many stages, you're not going to have time to look up distance for a each target then look up the dope for that distance during the stage. Especially if you need to shoot several targets at different distances from multiple firing points. The smarter thing to do is list your targets and dope and/or leads specific for them.

T1: 4.5 mil
T2: 0.7 mil
T3: 2.6 mil


I've been using a Sidewinder instead of a wrist coach for this lately...
 
As an example, there was a stage at the CORE AI match where you had to move to a window and shoot a target at 750 yards, then one at 225 yards, then one at 458 yards (in that order). Then do it from 2 more windows, then a railing. You didn't have time to dial, let alone scan a detailed dope card for each shot.

That's my plan, make up dope per target. The match I'm going to has distances like 525 yards and 225 yards.

I assume if I confirm dope out to 600m then true up using ballistic Calc, it should be pretty good at closer distances right?
 
With a good BC and accurate velocity, you can compute the trajectory accurately even for longer distances.

I trued AB mobile at 700 here before leaving for LRSE and got all my shots on at 1001 and 1165 on their long distance stage.

Dollar stores have que cards... Lots of those, in every city... A nice pen would be an option over sharpie... Plus most coach bands have covered tops, don't need to laminate it...

Are you so bad at planning you forget your phone? Take a pic, you will always have it with you and can copy it out at any time...

With your poor planning, you will likely forget your tactical card holder and can then pick one up from your local sports store in said city for 10 bucks... they are called Football Wrist Coach Playbook Armband for Quarterback or something similar.
