jayR Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Kinda new to the area & want to try out few guns I just got. Anyone know a place where I can target practice on a few cans and and targets? Not looking for gun clubs or anything, just a place where I can pull of the side of the road and set up some targets. I use to go to a place near orchards/battleground area about 13 yrs ago but I forgot where it was. any suggestions will be appreciated.

Benny503 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I usually go to Scappoose for target shooting, its up in the hills 35 mins from portland. I when there over 15 times last couple years and see noone complain yet, I see bunch of people when up the hills to pickup left over used brass. Hey maybe we can hook up together and go one of this day. I have couple AR15s and couple handguns want to try out....

tidalsculpin Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Shooting is good south of Eugene. Most people target practice out Crow Road on the way to the Siuslaw River. Good deer hunting too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AquaticEngineer Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 This is the place I go with my buddies. Browns Camp Quarry Browns Camp Quarry. Safe shooting location, Rage is max of 150 yards from shooting locations to back of quarry. Please be aware of off road vechiles and hikers, and remember to clean up after yourself.

spectra Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Not really a whole lot of them anymore. I used to go to the end of Lower River road and shoot but now good luck the po po will come get you for sure. Also used to go up to Larch area but I think that is pretty much shut down also.

acrylics Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Last I heard, Brown's Camp was closed. I don't know of anything in the Vancouver area. For the larger shindigs we go up to a quarry off Memaloose Road out past Estacada. If it's just be and a buddy, we'll go to TCGC or out in the woods near Vernonia. From what I've seen, the days of pulling off the road and poppin' some cans are long gone :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markdadof2 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 There are also some areas out near Vernonia (off of HWY 26 on the way to the coast) that are good for shootingt as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
