    I've personally used Tony's RETS system and it's very well designed and thought out for beginners and advanced users alike. If you're just learning to estimate distance using a graduated reticle or if you're an experienced shooter that needs a training aid to sustain and improve your abilities, this is the ticket. You can use it right in your backyard or at the range.

    Very well thought out training tool!

    Here is a look of the target board I built and use with the set. The set gives you multiple ideas and examples of how you can setup the boards and get the most out of the training.

    Re: Impact Data Books - range estimation training set

    I have been getting a bunch of PM's and emails on the RETS system so here is some updated info.

    Range estimation with your scope is a basic skill of any long range shooter, military sniper and law enforcement sniper. This skill should be know and mastered for when you dont ahve a laser range finder or the thing breaks on you when you need it the most.

    Also many matches have stages you need to range with your scope only so you owe it to yourself to be able to do it effectively.

    If you use a Mildot Master you still need to have the proper mil reading.

    If you use a FDAC for your data you still need to have the correct range or your data you pull will be for the wrong range.

    So in a nut shell you need to understand, practice and master using yoru scope to range with.

    This set teaches you what you need to learn, gives you drills that you can setup and use the targets we have provided and the worksheets to master this technique on any range at any distance.

    This set gives you multiple ways to use our system as well as how to take and use the targets we offer and expand your training.

    This system will allow even the season veterans to go out and practice and keep up there skill level.

    Happy shooting

    Just got mine in, pocket one. I think I might have to get a bigger one since sometimes that font is small!

    Need a cover, looks like the Triad 2 way will work for this and the full size?

    Re: Impact Data Books - range estimation training set

    The response for this set has been outstanding. I cant wait to start getting feedback from everyone who has ordered.

    I have here at SHOT show and I have had a lot of police and military shooters who are going to order this series to train their shooters.

    Re: Impact Data Books - range estimation training set

    Guys thanks for all the great feedback we have been receiving thru the company email account.

    I am glad that this set of pages has been so successful and achieving its intended goal to teach shooters how to properly use their reticle to range properly.

    This is a basic skill any tactical shooter should know and master and this skill is often tested and used at shooting matches and will save your butt when your laser wont work or its battery dies.

    Another run of RETS pages are in for your learning pleasure!
     
    Re: Impact Data Books - range estimation training set

    If you're just learning to estimate range with a reticle, or if you're a very competent shooter that needs to sustain that ability, right in your own backyard, Tony's product is well worth it. This would have been an invaluable tool when I was a young 22 year old Marine, particularly when we were stuck at the barracks because we couldn't get out onto a range.

    Great work Tony.
     
    Re: Impact Data Books - range estimation training set

    Wow!!!!! That was some fast service. I received my RETS system "3" days after I ordered it (VA to OR). "IDB" doesn't waste any time getting orders shipped out to their customers. I have to say that in looking at this set I really like this product and it looks to be exactly what I needed for training/testing purposes. I'll be hitting the range with it later this afternoon so stand by for an update (hopefully with pics). Thanks again Tony for such a killer product. Steve.
