Airgun Assault: The Ultimate Airgun Experience
“whens the next one?”
With the last Airgun Assault being a great success, we were almost instantly being asked “whens the next one?”. Well, on 21.10.23 & 22.10.23 we’ll be hosting the second iteration of Airgun Assault: The Ultimate Airgun Experience. We had a lot of people miss out on the last event so we’ve decided to put on a (almost) complete duplicate. The courses will be slightly different but the disciplines will be staying the same.
Over two days we’ll be hosting 3 disciplines, 4 categories and 40+ shots. There will be raffles, stalls, catering and of course free parking and toilets.
Nobody is allowed to shoot both days as it will give an unfair advantage and pistols are not allowed

Memberships - Woodend Farm Complex
Disciplines
Woodend Field Target
- up to 20 shots
- 15 - 45 yards
- any stance allowed
- scope adjustment allowed
WFT (Woodend Field Target) will be very similar to HFT but with our own rules. We have a diverse range of customers and for some, it’s not getting down on the floor that’s the problem; it’s getting back up! Because of this, we are allowing ANY SHOOTING STANCE on all shots (shooting sticks are allowed). Another rule we are changing is for the adjustment of scopes after your first shot. When hunting, you don’t have to stick to the one magnification or parallax so why should you during a competition? We will be allowing the ADJUSTMENT OF SCOPES after your first shot, allowing you to judge distance via parallax (as all targets will be unmarked).
Long Range Benchrest
- 5 shots at 3 distances
- 65 - 95 yards
- Splatterburst silhouette targets
- spotting marshal
LRB (Long Range Benchrest) will be 3 shots at 5 distances (15 shots in total) from 60 - 95 yards. Using 12x18” Splatterburst Silhouette Targets (scoring 0 - 10 points), every shooter will get fresh targets. A marshal will be present with a spotting scope to confirm scores.
Freestanding Tactical
- up to 20 shots
- 10 - 35 yards
- 15 minute course
- uneven terrain
Freestanding Tactical will consist of up to 20 shots on uneven terrain (suitable footwear advised) Bell targets will be used scoring 10, 5 or 0 points. The course will be completed in 15 minutes; going around in 2’s, scoring each others scorecards.
ALL RULES WILL BE FULLY CONFIRMED ON THE DAY
