I grew up hunting the Shenandoah valley area there thousands of acres of public land.Great places to hunt.Not many hunters will give up directions to there honey holes most found these spots by trial and error.If I still lived there I would gladely show you some great spots.You can find good areas by studying topo maps and aireal photos but your going to have to burn boot leather finding the best spots.The G.W.National forest has some great spots and a 30/30 works very well there.Your best bet would be to find areas with good food sources then fine tune your set from there.
