I've seen all sorts of ways to record trajectory dope for later use:
Journals, cards laminated and taped to the stock, cards around the neck etc. Keeping our rifle dope handy always seems to be a problem. The neatest solution I've yet seen is Mark Allison's Pathfinder. (While I didn't realize it when I ordered, we actually featured this nifty tool in an article by Leroy Thompson in July's
S.W.A.T....page 12).
So here's the deal:
The Pathfinder is a pull out tape, loaded into a scope mounted turret that looks very much like a normal scope knob.

Allison Tool will provide these in 1" or 30mm; left or right hand; blank tape or filled out with your submitted dope. The unit arrives in a small
canister, complete with appropriate Allen wrench for attachment.
Ashley Emerson and I played around with the unit, atop (what else?) a McMillan .50. It's quick, handy and useful. I consider it a must for precision rifles.
