Daisy AVANTI Legend Model 853

anyone shoot one of these?
The Gunhive challenge has me thinking something like this would be nice to have to be able to practice in the yard when I don't have time to get out to the range.
So these seem like a cheaper way to do this.

@rhyno Never did spend that much on a bb or pellet gun. The Daisy PowerLine Model 880 has been my go to cheapo pellet rifle with a 4 power Gamo scope. I would setup targets at different distances out to 25 yards and try to punch the X ring out. With the crap trigger, it took alot of control to poke those Xs out. A little wind and you could see the pellets flight curve. Going from that back to a nice 1lb. Timney trigger was heavenly.
All in all I think it helped with trigger control.

Sorry if I am interrupting, thought was Rhyno asking>>>:worried:

@mamalukino No worries.
Heres the 853: http://www.daisy.com/node/107
If you are fortunate enough to be a CMP Member you can get a used one for $100 from them.
I would have one on the way if that were the case with me.
-
Yeah I grew up with a 880. I have a spare 3-9x40 off my wife's Axis. I may just go that route just to get trigger time.
-
@rhyno at $100 that's a deal.

Yes,that is a great deal and a much better route to go than the 880 if you can grab one for $100.00.

Indeed, now if only there was a cmp range withing 2 hours that I could join.
Haha, the one closest is youth only by the way their website reads.

@rhyno do you qualify for one of their other alternatives?
-
@mamalukino no, I think the closest public range is an hour away.
-
@norcal_in_az didn't know they had alternatives.
Shot sn email to a guy last night who might know something like this though.
