Plinking in the woods? BLM spots?

[Calibrassburner]

I know its hunting season, but i was wondering if there's any good spots this saturday to go in Pollock Pines? I have visitors looking to plink. And I usually go to emmigrant trail spots of Bonnetti.

Any "safer" spots where hunters wont frequent this weekend? I hear of a "quarry" near Icehouse road. Any info is helpful.

And yes, i plan to keep it clean, pick up brass and casings, and leave no evidence except footprints that we were there.

thanks in advance.

Bonnetti Road is most likely good to go. I don't see hunters spending much time hunting there due to it being super popular to target shooters.

[Calibrassburner]

oh okay. I guess we should wear a ton of orange and blast music to scare off any animals and people just in case. lol

[Skip_Dog]

Yeah maybe a few orange caps just to be sure.

the ranger station told me that I should look into going to the "quarry" by icehouse road, as she said not many hunters go that way. Do you know where that is? or if that's true? I can't seem to find it on google maps. mind helping a fellow shooter out?

[Skip_Dog]

No I do not. Maybe call her back and ask her for directions. I am sure she will be happy to point you to a safer place to shoot. I am from Lodi and only make it up that way a few times a year.

FYI if it is an active Quarry or mine fire arm possession is federally prohibited. I would double check this before heading that way. Some of our guys learned of this during MSHAW training. When they returned from training they made sure to tell me about it because they know I shoot.

Nobody hunts off Bonetti. Their is no game there because year round target shooting. I'm there every single Sunday from dawn till about 3-4:00 unless they get fresh snow (during winter). If you want to wear orange go ahead. But nobody else does because nobody is setting up a blind or a stand in the middle of the most active target shooting spots in the area because that would be a waste of time. The target areas are in reasonably open areas where visability is clear. Not in the middle of dense woods.
