[QUOTE="zupatun, post: 418223, member: 3533"] In Northern VA CF Phelps has some fields but I don't think they are too big...there are a couple power lines as well, but I only use it for the sighting in range on occasion. Thompson is hardwoods hunting and a single hillside...mostly with my Marlin 30-30. My hunt club has a piece in Prince William (South and West of Quantico) that presents shots out to 600yards, but most shots would be not much longer than 350 as the land is rolling rather than hillsides--hard to shoot down the second dip and can't shoot a sillouhetted target with no backstop. Best shots are over a mile hike in and when it's wet I can't take my jeep in very far and there's no quad in my budget... The national forest land near Front Royal is one hillside or the other--no shooting from ridge to ridge etc... There's some nice land in Farquier, but if you don't have private land access or a hunt club you are hard pressed in Virginia. I hunt the Prince William plot until April...we have too many deer here.
