spitboy Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 How come there doesn't seem to be any competitive shooting in the Portland area? Too many hippies? Do I have to move to Bellingham to get any action?? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spitboy Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 thanks for the link...Eagle creek would be the closest and still pretty far outside PDX. I'm in Vancouver...wishing it was more popular here and closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty79 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Cascade sectional for USPSA. Easiest to get to from Portland is probably Dundee. My absolute favorite match. There is also a Practical Pistol match at Tri-County Gun Club in Sherwood. TCGC has a local rule that forbids muzzles above the berm so they can't hold official USPSA matches. It's a fun match, but can't hold classifiers. There is 3 gun at TCGC, Douglass Ridge (Eagle Creek) and Albany. Steel Challenge at all 3 also. TCGC has official IDPA matches, several Cowboy action matches, Practical rifle, and the "Tactical" match. The Tactical match is a 3 gun match using pistol caliber carbine, IDPA like cover and pistols from concealment. You can shoot something almost every day of every weekend within and hour of Portland.

I wondered why Tri-County didn't have something. Thanks for the education. And Hello from the Couve!...I see your in PDX Smitty....sure was a nice day yesterday!!!

fishsticks Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Albany isn't that far, about 90 minutes from my place in Vancouver. They also put on a very good match and it is well worth the drive. Like others have said Dundee is a great match as well. Douglas ridge is a little limited by their bay set-up but it is the closest USPSA match for anyone coming from Vancouver. Try them all!
