side shoots
there will be a number of really cool sideshoots taking place at whfta 2023, including trialling a beta of a brand new airgun discipline! whfta 2023 competitors get to take part in a beta of something completely new, this is something we've been asked to get involved with by some of the manufacturers, let me tell you, it's pretty darn mega!

Sideshoots are £1.00 per go and there will be prizes for the winners..... not that hft'ers get competitive over this sort of thing........

JSB trial range
This is pretty epic. The good folk from JSB are attending WHFTA, not only are they attending but there is going to be a bespoke JSB trial range where WHFTA 2023 Competitors can try the latest JSB batches of ammunition and chat direct to the JSB Team. But wait there is more…….

Once you have carefully selected the best pellet(s), you can then purchase your chosen pellet at a heavily discounted rate. How mega is that!?

This offer is only available for WHFTA 2023 Competitors (everyone’s entry will act as confirmation to purchase).

Prices
JSB EXAct .177 £11.99 per tin, £115.00 for 10 tins (1 sleeve). card and cash payments accpeted on the day.

other pellets will be available, prices available on the day of the event.
