PRetty good list. I would however add a couple of more things. I LOVE thumb tacks, they are better than staplers. They are cheaper, can be used over and over again, they dont need a stapler to use them they are just better. I like spots, but in lue there of I often opt for masking tape, same principle but cheaper and more bang for the buck. In referrence to the tools, I like a multi with a bitset. You can use that for almost all of those other tools with some minor adjustments. A good spotting scope is a must. And Iused to make 20 trips in and out of the basement to load everything in the truck, got a nice range bag, with good space and organization and now I make like two trips most times. Good list tho…..BUY MORE AMMO

Thing I see shooters lacking most often? First aid kit. And a good thing to carry in it is some Benadryl and/ or some anti-inflammatory for those pesky bee and wasp stings.

Extra glasses (dark and light), insect repellant, sunscreen, hat, rain gear, wet wipes, complete cleaning/maintenance/lube kit, cell phone (or other communication if you’re going out of network coverage area), clay targets are fun even if placed static on the berm, garbage bag for clean-up when you’re done, fire extinguisher (especially when shooting steel targets or using steel cased or cored ammo, and tracers are sure fire starters), some food, lots of extra ammo, lens cleaning kit, rangefinder.
A purpose– know what you want to accomplish at the range that day.
