    The classic NRA Junior competition rifle! Ideal for shooters 16 and up (with adult supervision) to learn to shoot in 10-meter competition. Daisy's Avanti 853 Legend has a sporter hardwood stock that's capped with a removable buttpad to allow for the included insert spacers to adjust the length of pull for the shooter's size.

    Most impressive is the crowned Lothar Walther barrel. It's precision-bored for .177 match pellets, has 12 lands and grooves, and a right-hand twist. The front sight has interchangeable aperture inserts, and the rear sight is micrometer adjustable. The included sling will also help the shooter steady the rifle. The 853 Legend is so accurate that most shooters will not outgrow the rifle's potential. Although official competition rules do not allow scopes, the rifle has a dovetail scope mount in the diecast receiver in the event you want to use this rifle for shooting other targets or just for fun.

    Things I liked:Extremely accurate! Single stroke pneumatic with no recoil. Long pump lever with a handle for a good grip just like the Daisy 880 I had in 1972. easy to load. Almost all metal and wood with few plastic parts. Doesn't look or feel like a toy. Great for an indoor shooting range.
    Things I would have changed:Not a thing.
    What others should know:This is my favorite rifle for target shooting in the basement. It's accuracy never fails to impress. I did replace the original front sight with the fiber optic sight and barrel weight from the Daisy Powerline 953 for better visibility indoors. This is an excellent target gun, it was never designed for hunting or pest control, it isn't powerful enough for that unless the pest is a large spider crawling across the basement floor. The accuracy of this rifle does make it a good bug buster!

    Things I liked:The price. The gun is very straight forward in its functioning. It is very accurate.
    Things I would have changed:It really needs a better trigger. I have been able to live with the trigger but at times must be very patient because it does not produce consistent results. A crisp, light trigger would make this a world class target gun.
    What others should know:An adult shooter should consider the 753.

    Things I liked:Incredible accuracy, light weight, quiet, and easy to shoot and cock allowing you to shoot for as long as you want without fatigue.
    Things I would have changed:Nothing that I can think of.
    What others should know:This rifle is incredbly accurate at its designed range. I literally shot 4 pellets through the same hole at 10 meters. At first I thought I was hallucinating, so I deliberately shot the fifth shot a bit higher, to prove to myself that I was shooting through the same hole. Unbelievable. Even at 10 meters, an expensive break barrel can't come close to this. My Marauder can't do this either. I love this gun!
