I am so happy to own this air rifle!
This is the same model I used when I was on the air riflery team in MCJROTC. Some of the other cadets prefered the "better" 753 but I always liked the classic feel of the 853. I can say with all certainty that this air gun is ACCURATE! I have never had a problem with it being off one way or the other. It is a great training tool. It teaches Marksmanship by making you take each shot one round at a time, forcing you to make that one shot count. the only thing I can say in the negative is that the sling takes some getting used to because its doesn't have 2 points of contact with the gun, one end is attached to the front of the stock by a swivel, and the other end is a loop you tighten around your supporting arm just above the bicep. it is wierd at first but you will get used to it. If you want something to practice you marksmanship with that wont cost you a fortune in ammo, and youve out grown your Red Rider, I would highly recomend this air...Read more

I didn't purchase this air rifle on Amazon, however, I'd like to comment on it anyway. I've had this rifle for well over 15 years, and with not one single failure. It is accurate enough to place shots within the same hole out to 75 feet and maybe more. I use it to keep my hand and eye coordinated for hunting season. My only complaint (and the reason for 4 stars) is the creepy trigger pull. This may have been imporved over the years, however, I've learn to get passed it.
It is not as fast as some of the other air rifles, but it's accuracy is outstanding and you will not be disappointed. I would highly recommend it.

We use these on our JROTC marksmanship team, with it I'm able to hit a bulls-eye not much larger than the tip of a pencil.
