All-Weather Top Spiral DOPE Logbook, 4" x 6"

Attention, sharpshooters! I've found the Holy Grail for all our long-range, high-precision shooting escapades – the Rite in the Rain Weatherproof Top Spiral DOPE Logbook. But before you rush off to purchase this marvel of stationary engineering, let me recount the heart-pounding saga of my tests. You see, my locale has been experiencing a rain shortage akin to a desert. So, how does one test a waterproof notebook in a drought? Simple, you bring the rain to the notebook. Armed with a sprinkler and a kiddie pool (don't ask), I subjected my newly acquired treasure to a thorough deluge. The results? This notebook shrugged off my watery onslaught like a duck scoffing at a drizzle. Shooters, you know the drill: a drizzle can turn a range day sour faster than a misaligned scope. But this notebook defies nature and laughs in the face of adversity, much like us when we nail that 1,000-yard shot. It's like having a steadfast spotter by your side, undeterred by a downpour. Now, I've heard rumors that some folks favor gnawing on crayons over jotting down their shooting records. I'm looking at you, dear Marines. But let's get one thing clear - this notebook is an indomitable recorder, not a snack. It's designed to record your impressive shooting prowess, not to aid your nutritional needs or offer a tasty distraction. So, while I endorse this book for long-range shooters of all stripes, it might be a bit of a letdown for those with a crayon-based diet. Seriously, Marines, it's time to upgrade from your colorful munchies and embrace the DOPE (Data On Previous Engagement) lifestyle! In all seriousness, though, I heartily recommend this logbook. For its ability to withstand everything short of a tornado and its commitment to preserving our shooting stats, I award the Rite in the Rain Logbook a perfect five-star rating. Just keep it away from the campfire – it's a 'Rite in the Rain' notebook, not a 'Jot in the Inferno'. So, let the heavens open, and let the rain pour! This DOPE logbook and I are ready for anything. Your move, Mother Nature.

Good dope book. In the front you have 2 pages for a session round count to keep an over all total for the rifle. There are 52 entry slots here. There are 52 dope pages, to track data within a range day. If you shoot once a week this should last you a year.

Some may want more pre-printed data collection sections than these provide, but the photos in the listing showed exactly what I was getting before I ordered so I can't complain about that - especially since these pages have plenty of space to add whatever additional data I want. In fact, at the time I bought these, this 2 pack had a lower per-unit price going via Subscribe & Save than even the 3-pack of standard-ruled (no DOPE sections) 4"x6" Rite in the Rain pads, with which I'd have been fully satisfied anyway because I can always just create my own format and copy it by hand to succeeding pages. Anyone unhappy with the number of session pages provided per pad here is probably shooting often enough to justify finding another source within the "pro" communities for DOPE books. This just makes a handy book to keep with something I will probably only take to the range infrequently; if I get more serious with that particular piece of hardware, I'll find a more serious data book solution - the pros, and even the hardcore amateurs, have plenty of templates circulating online.

Exactly as advertised, easier to carry in range bag than full size DOPE book.

I needed to have a DOPE book for a recent long range rifle course. Found this and figured I would give it a try. I didn't want something too big so it would fit into my pack. The reviews on this seemed pretty good so I gave it a try. I love it. I used a 5.11 pen and it works great. It's big enough to put all the data you need and it's organized enough to not have you document things you don't need. I would buy this again/recommend it to anyone

Good product in that it’s a durable write in the rain product. Its saving grace is the fact that it has blank/lined sheets to accompany the DOPE sheets. The form they’ve opted to use is generic I get, but would have been nice to have some additional info boxes like muzzle velocity, etc. The blank sheets allow adding this info, so I’m going 4 stars.

Good

Item performed as expected. Works great in the rain. Very good for first-responders.

Good for the shooter Who likes to write down a lot of details. A Little too specific maybe.
