Google Drive

Post by 357cyrus »

Anyone else been using Google Drive? I've recently been playing with the spreadsheet function and find it easy enough to learn and customize. Here's a sample of something I whipped up in about 15 minutes of playing around with it.

Basically I just tried to copy a page full of my written testing notes. Then I deleted out all the numbers and made a template, which I can reuse to play fill in the blank or modify fields as needed. I really like the fact that I can have it with me on my smartphone wherever I go. I can now instantly use it on the range, or sitting in the dentist's office when a thought rolls into my head. Also has math functions to automatically take average velocities and such. The only thing missing when I use my phone, is that when I'm using/viewing with a computer I can add notes to each individual box. It's almost like an asterisk that you hold your mouse over and hidden text appears. I've also made up pages to keep inventory of firearms and ammo I have on hand. Would be pretty easy to make ballistic drop charts as well.

I use google for the records that I'm required to keep for my wildlife exemption on my ranch. It is best to start by making a form, instead of jumping straight into a spreadsheet. The forms make smartphone use easy.

Well, moved it over to "Bullets, Buckshot, and Slugs" under "Casting". Don't know if there's an easier way to do it, but I couldn't find one from my phone for the time being.
