Ran into those guys about a week ago up towards Skykomish. I know where they filmed that. Just after I left.

I watched them place those targets while I was overlooking the clear cut. They came up behind me and parked on the hill. I was in the gulley in front of them. I made sure to arrive before they began shooting over my heads as they had no idea I was there. The reason I am certain is the same guys is I recognize their faces and rifles first. But when he said the range to that one target I remember he told me he was shooting targets at that range. I think they drive a black SUV. The area has a gate but it is not locked and the gate is usually closed.

I know that spot.  If it’s where I’m thinking it is they are putting in a new gate down by the Highway.

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.
