For some people it maybe a little bit of a drive to get out to the range. Last thing you want to do is cut your trip short because you forgot something or have to drive back. in that case or in any case when you get settled in it's nice to know that you have everything that you'll need. To that end I've created my own list. It should be noted that each person's list will we different based on your individual needs.
Here's my preliminary rough list. I'll leave it to the more experienced shooters in this form to examine and comment.
but first a brief description of my setup and what I intend to do when I get there. I would like to bench shoot at targets approximately 50 to 100 to 200 yards out. I'm going to accomplish this using a CVA wolf 45 caliber cheap shot saboted bullets and loose hodgdon 777 powder.
Folding chair if required
Door mats or towels etc to lay on range table.
Sandbags or tripod
Loose 777 in powder flask
Powder measure
Pre measure load tubes
209 primers
Bullet and sabots
Range rod
Bullet starter
Cotton patches
Scissors for above patches if needed
Quick bore cleaning solution for between shots (must be evaporative)
Pipe cleaner, needle or drill bit for breech plug hole
Teflon tape, antiseeze or grease for breach threads
Paper targets
Pins, tape, stapler or toothpick to attach targets
Range finder or binoculars
Bottled water
Lint free rags
Paper towels
Pens or pencils
Score cards
Sunglasses or eye protection
Hearing protection
Scope tools ie Allen wrenches etc. In case scope loosens up
Glass cleaner wipes
Drinking water
Hand sanitizer
Snacks
Multiple head screwdriver and/or multi-tool.
Pocket knife
Sunscreen
Insect repellent
