I don't know about around P-town; things may be pretty... pussified up there as far as shooting on the public land as others have alluded to.
Down here, 2 hours south, it takes 15-20 minutes to be up on BLM shootin' your heart out <g>.
Let me know if you want to hook up! I might be able to just meet halfway and go up on some BLM near Salem; all we need is a big clearcut and those are not hard to find.
You'll notice on the map I posted that the BLM is "checkerboarded" in some areas. In general, when you see that, the non-BLM is timber company land and unless posted otherwise you can treat it like BLM, in my experience. Weyerhouser is the only timber company around here that I've seen actually post their land, and then only some of it. If it's not posted the worst that can happen, IME, is that someone stops by and asks you to move to a different spot. I've had that happen exactly once in 10 years to put it in context.
