I can usually fit this kind of information on a 3x5" card, one per gun carried by the PC. I print it with the numbers off, then pencil in the calculated #'s, since they will change sooner or later.

As a GM, I find it helpful to write out before-game what the NPCs' tactics ought to be, as well as their to-hit numbers. It's one less thing to remember when the dice start rolling.

There's also this ad: http://fastercombat.com/enroll/ I've not read nor bought this product; it seems to focus on fantasy RPGs, but a reviewer for Traveller thought it worthwhile: http://freelancetraveller.com/featur...runcombat.html
