New to firearm ownership and want some inspiration on building my range kit

A weight rated picnic wagon is easier to wheel around! 🤣
I’m not ashamed to eat veggies one to two days a week every now and then isn’t a bad thing. I used to eat a lot of meat and as I’m getting older I’m finding my digestion needs some scheduled breaks. I especially enjoy veggies I grow from my own garden. Not sure how many other people do vermiculture for a hobby.
 
My range backpack

1-2 pistols
200-400 rounds of ammo
Speed loader
Small rubber mallet
Cleaning rod
Ear and eye production
Small tools for adjustment optics or small fixes I can do at the range
Lube
Shoot and see targets

I go the minimum and easy to carry route otherwise going to the range becomes a hassle. Everything I need fits in my backpack so my hands are free. I also go with buddies so we split up on the "plus items" so we don't have one person hauling their entire armory with him.
 
Must: Guns, mags, Ammo, speedloader, Eyes & Ear protection

Nice to have: Lube, tools, snacks, first aide,

Backpack for the youth and folding wagon for us olds.
