    Round count logs

    How do you guys log round counts? I can’t keep track of what I wore or ate the day before, nevermind managing my bank account.

    I’m not going to maintain an excel spreadsheet and notebooks get lost after the first range trip.

    I use one of those hipster "Field Notes" pocket notebooks and just keep a running round count for each firearm. I keep it in the safe and update when I unload after a range trip. It's probably off by a few hundred +/- but it's close.

    I just use the “notes” in my phone to jot down round count when convenient, as well as an inventory of ammo types on hand. We always have our phones so it’s easy and convenient. It will even automatically transfer to a new phone so data shouldn’t get lost over time.

    I just use a scrap piece of paper I keep in a magazine. I have a column with the rifle and just keep scratching out the previous round count with the new number next to the rifle. Nothing fancy or neat to look at.

    Regular spiral notebook. I also include any malfunctions, weather conditions, drills etc. It has, at times, helped me but not very often. I think it's an OCD thing, but the only person's time I'm wasting by doing it is mine, so I'll just keep doing it.

    Several vendors carry knock-offs of GI round count books.

    On precision rifles, I use round count books kept in my shooting kit. I also count primers---I buy enough primers to wear out a barrel all at once. At any time I can count how many are missing from the stash.

    I may make a few of those and stash them in the grips.

    In the end, paper and pen methods get old real quick. I might just stick with using “notes” on my iPhone and let the data get lost overtime.
