Re: How do I make a data card.?...Yah im a noob
You have data already or need it? If you need it then take your velocity and environmentals to JBM Ballistics and put them in and it will give you data. Run it in either full MOA or Mils depending on what your scope is or one column in each if you have an MOA knobbed scope with a Mil reticle.

Temp, barometric pressure, elevation, humidity. You will see it at the bottom of the page in JBM.
Here's a link to their Simple Trajectory page. It will give you good data if you put in good data.

Re: Need some help with data card...1st time
You could go to 150,200,250 ect. It depends on how detailed a range card you want to develop. Another thing to go with it would be the conditions you are shooting in. Also if you have access to a chronograph for your velocity on this load/bullet combination.
