Where do you shoot?
« on: January 25, 2009, 09:18:36 PM »
At a public range , private range, or in the woods?
I've been a member of a couple of different ranges, Evergreen sportsman's club and P'El sportsman's club. The solid benches and covered shooting areas were nice but anymore I go out in the woods to target practice. Where do you guys shoot whether practice, site in, or working up loads?
This is in Capital forest, I shoot here when I'm working up loads or siteing in.

Most of the long range shooting I do up the Skokomish.
heres my set up



1000yard range

600 yard range

another 1000 yard range

I'm able to shoot at my work, behind a closed gate. 400 is the max range though.

Nice MH right in town there?

I go to the woods or to a gravel pit down in Whitman county. I havent been to a rifle range since my Army days. Been trap and sporting clays shooting at ranges though.

TRRC is where I shoot, the oldest gun range in the country.

I practice my bow, rifle, and pistol at TSC off of Canyon Road.  They have a pretty good walk through course for the bow.  However, their rifle range is only 200 yards.  They also have a skeet range, but I've never used it.

Where is the longest rifle range on the west side?

Is shooting in the woods legal?  I would much rather shoot there than heading over to Wapato to shoot 1000 yards.

It's legal but you have to use common sense. And I wont shoot in some places just becuse of too many folks around.

600 yards at TRRC

550 at my home range, Upper Nisqually Sportsman's Club.

Does TRRC allow 600 yard shooting all the time or just during sanctioned events and special occasions?
