NEED HELP!!Moved to Portland/Vancouver area

[dobber]

Hello Folks,
I have recently moved into Portland Oregon. I have found a place to shoot at Douglas Ridge Club, but they have no benchrest or F Class competition. Is there any Benchrest 100yds or beyond in Oregon? or Washington? Would appreciate any help.
Thanks Dobber

Two links for you to check out, WA and OR State Shooting Associations. Each has a match schedule for the year.

Tri-County gun club has lots of good facilities but only goes out to 600yds.

Douglas Ridge has no F-Class?? Look for high power prone matches (prone/60, prone/80). WA (and OR) don't always schedule "F-Class" specific matches- they just lump them in with the High Power matches and schedule them that way too. I know the Douglas Ridge hosts at least one match with many F-Class shooters since they are one of the few 1000 yard ranges (aside from Rattlesnake) available.

Hi folks,
Thanks to all who replied to my plea for help. The websites were helpful and now it looks like I will have a choice of places to shoot. This is a very friendly and helpful group and forum.

Doug Ridge will have a the Burden Memorial matches near during a weekend near the end of May with Palma and 1000yd matches. F-class shooters will be attending. This is the weekend after Rattlenake has their Palma state championship where F-classers also attend.

Are you talking about tri-county? I can e-mail Pete if you like. Is this the same Lynn that shoots and M1A during the Tuesday 600 night shoots?

I used to shoot in Sacramento and heard at the nbrsa nationals that Portland didn't get enough shooters and that this has ended there program.
