I hunted NE Washington a few years back, about as far east and north in the state you could go. Tough hunting as the forest is so thick. What I found worked for me was to scout around and find the trails the deer used to come out of their bedding areas on the way down to water and food. Plenty of public land to hunt but don't be afraid to knock on a few doors. Lots of apple orchards and a few of the land owners are only to happy to let hunters take a deer. Just be sure you can tell the difference between a muley and a whitetail. Both species inhabit the area. I found no need to use a scope as the furthest shot I made in two years hunting there was about 50-60 yards. Set up on a well used trail and wait for the deer to come to you. I jumped one deer that was no further than 20 yards away and never saw it. Hope this helps you somewhat.
It ain't the size of the gun but the placement of the bullet.

Welcome,

Sorry I don't have any advice either about Washington. Good luck to you though.
