They were issued to me when I was practicing with the Washington Army National Guard marksmanship team, but the brass just disbanded the team last August.

So where does one buy those range cards? I can't find 'em for sale at any gunshop.

OK, I am an across the course high power service rifle shooter among other things, I am unfamiliar with "range cards". Do you perhaps mean a data book with the target face shown in minutes?

As we can see from the attachment posted by JudgeBAC, a range card is a hand drawn map of the quadrant you can see from your defensive position--such as a foxhole. Most often it represents the terrain that a machine gunner is assigned to defend. In the infantry we often used the plain brown boxes from our C-rations for range cards if nothing better was available. A range card has no application for match shooting.

Thanks, that is exactly what I mean. Sorry about mixing up the terms.

I don't know if these would be useful to you but they are free and printable so it beats nothing I suppose.They have a few different kinds, Happy shooting...

That site acguy45 just posted has all the score sheets in pdf. If you want a bound book here's the one I have been using for across the course. It also has LR sheets but I bought the CC LR book too, I'd rather have a book for each rifle.

Here are all of CC's books, Jim Owen makes nice books but they are triple the price. HTH
