The Daisy AVANTI 887 is the new rifle from Daisy which is the 888 fitted to a 753 style stock. It has a Lothar-Walther barrel that is the same as the olympic precision air rifles. This is now the gun to have. |
A new rifle, this is the 888 action mated to a 753 style laminated stock.
Club price for these is $295. This should be the gun the older shooters should order as it is a touch heavier than the 888. |
The Daisy AVANTI 888 Medalist is a consistently precise CO2-powered rifle designed specifically for shooters who want to test their skills in competition. The refillable 2.5 oz. CO2 cylinder, when properly filled, provides 300 shots without significant drop in muzzle velocity. Includes rail adapter. This rifle is essentially the same as the 853 (below), except for the CO2 gas system.
|
The 888 is the overwhelming choice for the Valencia County 4-H shooters. This rifle has a 4-H club price of $230.
If more precise front and rear sights are required, these features add about another $110.

The Daisy 853 Pneumatic was, until a few years ago, the head of the class of 10-meter competition. Features a Lothar WaltherTM rifled high-grade, steel barrel that is precision bored for .177 caliber match pellets. Crowned 12 lands and grooves. Right hand twist. Also features micro-adjustable sights and a handsome, sporter-style hardwood stock. (Trigger pull is non-adjustable at about 4-5 lb. This may be legally modified, but some mechanical skills are required)
The Daisy 853CM adds a black composite 753 style stock to a 853 action, Gamo style sights, and an extra barrel weight. (Trigger pull is non-adjustable at about 4-5 lb. This may be legally modified, but some mechanical skills are required)
The Daisy 953 has a black composite stock.

The 853/953 series are fine shooting rifles, but are difficult (impossible for smaller shooters) for shooters to cock in the prone and kneeling positions. You will still see many of these rifles in JROTC programs. You should be able to find these rifles for under $200.
The 853CM is $190 club price.
Again, all the pnematic pump guns are very accurate, but are difficult to cock and fire in the prone position.

For years competitive shooters excelled with the Daisy 753 pneumatic. From local matches to national competitions, require a unique combination of superior accuracy and exceptional balance. The Elite is specially designed and engineered for the intermediate competitive shooter. Dollar for dollar, it delivers more quality and accuracy than any rifle in its class.
|
The 753 is the 853 rifle with a much more efficient stock (high cheekpiece and pistolgrip), and comes standard with the "Gamo" style competition sight set. An excellent rifle, but again, as a pneumatic rifle is difficult to use in a 3-Position match. |
The Daisy XSV-40 is a Compressed Air Rifle
|
Daisy was the US importer for this CZ manufactured Air Rifle and got it approved by the 3PARC. It is a wonderful gun for smaller shooters, but it's nearly $500 price tag was pretty steep. Daisy no longer imports this rifle.
You now must keep the buttplate in the mid position as shown. (2007 rules)
|
The Air Arms T200 is one of the newer approved rifles. It is compressed air rifle, very similar to the XSV-40, but with non-adjustable cheekpiece and butt-plate.
|
This is the "new" XSV-40 style rifle. The action is the same as the XSV-40, but there are no adjustments to the stock. Just like the the XSV-40, this is a CZ manufactured rifle.
Club price for this rifle is $445

Crosman Challenger 2000. This three-position, competition-quality target rifle is perfect for shooters of all sizes and skill levels. Not to mention, its the most accurate air rifle we manufacture. Its also the only airgun in its price range designed for use in the standing, kneeling and prone positions.
The stock, butt plate and cheek piece are all adjustable for the best possible fit. And a quality sight can be used with - or without the cup. Additional features like the trigger over-travel screw, a molded pistol-style grip, ambidextrous steel straight pull bolt, hooded front aperture and fully adjustable rear sight are available.

This rifle is list at $385. Very nice stock adjustments .... as a matter of fact the best of all the sporters, but the barrel qualily is not as high as the Lothar-Walthers in the Daisy's.
In addition this CO2 powered rifle takes the small 12 gram cylinders which limit the use in matches to 20 or so quality shots. Outdoores in heat, this is reduced to 10 shots. A tough rifle to use in a 3x20 3-P match when you're changing cylinders after every target.
