[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1618609, member: 63925"] My load sheet is setup for multiple colors I use to mark the primers with a Sharpie. I start off with plain primer, black dot, green dot, blue dot and red dot. Each group is usually 4-5 per load. Still can see primer issues etc but clear as can be to identify which load is what. "HS" stands for headspace measured with Stoney Point gauges. Edited: added more detail: One of the biggest issue is to manage how many times the brass has been reloaded. I work off of 20 round lots and then count the number of reloads on the specific lot. The sheet shows a lot number and reload number. That tells me the specific 20 rounds I have been loading and how many times they have been reloaded. I then label (Avery Labels in printer) the plastic ammo box with the same info so I know exactly what lot and reload is in the box that correlates to the detailed load data sheet. The color columns gives me space to record how many loads for each color and I can record the velocity under each one of the color coded rounds. I can also total up exactly the number of rounds through a specific rifle easily from the lot number and load number. [/QUOTE]
