Public places to target shoot Something to do

I know this is a question asked every so often here, but I think it is ok to ask again as some BLM areas get shut down and even gated from time-to-time.

I'm looking for spots less than 45 minutes drive from Eugene where I can legally set up targets and practice shooting. It seems unnecessarily difficult to find this information through BLM resources.

Thanks in advance, and know that I take the responsibility of gun ownership very seriously and always practice proper shooting ethics, including clean up of the site after use.

There's a few decent spots in the Dexter/Lowell area.

Take lost creek road in Dexter, make a right turn down a gravel road about 1000 feet after Railroad Anderson road. There are concrete barriers at 2 spots down that road. Not much distance though.
