Straight Shoter - I suggest you check out the Spokane Valley Range out at Mica. It is very affordable and great range - lots of distance out to 1000.

Straight Shooter, there are a few private ranges out on the west plains that get out quite a few yards. Guess it all depends on what your into as far as shooting goes.

If interested, log onto www.westcoasttactical.com  make yourself "known" and what you'd like to find/do.

I don't get on the 'puter much these days, so I can't tell you how long before I'd be able to reply to anything.

You guys should mention that Joel's Mica range doesn't open before 2pm, and he doesn't like 50's blasting up his steel. Did we mention he has steel??? ;)

he is correct - Joel doesn't like 50's tearing up his steel, but likes it if you are offering to replace his steel.  He likes to have the 50's out there.  He likes the out of the ordinary.

Thanks Whacker and Littletoes for the info.  I was at the Mica range in May to check out their pistol match.  Nice range in a nice setting.  Definitely plan on using it once I have my .308 tactical rig put together.  There's a small range in Deep Creek about 10 minutes from the house.  The price is right and it's close, but it only goes out to 100 yards.  I guess I could use it for quick sight-ins for new rifles or when I change out scopes.

Where is the range at Deep Creek in relationship to hwy 2?  I am not familiar with this one.

there is a nice range over in Post falls that is owned/operated by the Elks if I remember correctly - goes to 200 yards, and hey have it in a hole, so it eliminates much of the windage for sighting in purposes.  Many folks shoot pistols here.  I have been out there for several years, but always like it.

I think that it's on Hallett (from Hwy 2... heading down the hill (going west), turn left on Espanola... a few miles down, you should be able to make a right on Hallett).  It's a small range and you'll miss if not looking hard for it.  I think that the owner's last name is Dolan.

That range is called Lone Pines.  The address and phone number is 25902 W Hallett Road, Medical Lake. (509) 299-5419.  The guy's name is Jack Dolan and he requires a little safety brief prior to using his range.

No problem.  I've never shot there personally.  If you just want somewhere to sight in for 100 yds, there is a little piece of state land that is the same driving distance as the range.  I can PM you guys directions.

Shoot at a public range north of the Bridge of the Gods.Its at a Skamania County pit. Longview fiber used to let some of their land be used, we had a 150yd range there. BUT PUKES tore it up and was dumping garbage and junk there. Helped clean it up a couple of times but Longview fiber still closed it down. Longview fiber would like to close all of their area off but its mostley public roads to get in there so they can't. Lately the most garbage in the hills I've been seeing is from logging operations anyway.

I went out this morning, fired the first shot about 6:30. By 10:00 it was warm enough the BBl on my rifle was taking too long to cool so I called it a day early. I hate the heat, it was 70* when I started this morning.
