Ok sounds like a snow day project :)

Wow Ron! That is impressive shooting. Looks like you're figuring out the 853 quite nicely. Well, I used "Blondie" for this match. She's my Daisy 853. We tried to give you a run for your money, but we weren't good enough this go around. Maybe next time. 😉

Very well done.

Nice looking target Eric and good looking target John! You guys are shooting well.
Ron, you're coming right along smartly looking good!
I was going to shoot today, but I never got around to it so tomorrow is the day.

Thank you , Charlie.
I really like all the grouping of the shooters using the 853s.
It speaks volumes for the accuracy of the rifle.

Thanks Ron, I'm loving the 1701p I have no dought that it can out shoot me. Just put a peep sight on it so we'll see how that goes. Plus I want to start shooting off hand.

Spent most of the afternoon shooting my Daisy 753. My eyesight is so freaking bad. It's telling me to put the scope on it but I don't wanna do that. I want to shoot with the diopter sight. So, hoping I can shoot a round with my Daisy and turn in a target next week, though it may be with a scope we will see.
On another note, good, shooting everybody you're tearing the targets up! Impressive, pistol work no doubt about it. Glad to see the Daisy 853's turning in good scores.
Shoot well and have fun!

Wow, that was almost "perfect" with 20Xs .
You'll get it I'm sure of that.

Thanks Ron! Shooting a perfect target is my goal. It's hard for an old fart like me but I try. Well your 853 is doing great. Well, and have fun!

That too is my goal.
It would be like pitching a perfect game in baseball, or bowling a 300.

Although he has almost ALWAYS bested me.
