I think one thing I needed to decide, regarding a rifle, was purpose of use. I was vacillating between a gun just for marksmanship or for both marksmanship and hunting. After two days of web surfing the issue, I've decided I need to just go with a target gun. If I try to get a gun that will do both, it will do neither really well and, if I need to shoot a critter, I have guns for that.
SO...with that said...I really like the idea of the Daisy 753. These are what CMP uses in their "sporter" division, which is what the less well funded high schools use in the Riflery teams. (The well funded schools run the "precision" class Anshutz guns, and those are way beyond my price range. I also like the 753's low velocity and report. (Although, I see there is a 753S which is about $250 and a 753 that is about $360-I wonder what the difference is.)
The only two things I dislike about the 753 is the stock and front sight. I would prefer something with a more traditional ("hunting" for lack of a better term) pistol grip/wrist area, primarily because I shoot a Garand; I would prefer a stock like that of the RWS 34 or the HS30. I think I would prefer a front post sight, again, due to the similarity to the M1 front sight.
In regards to a pistol, I don't know where to go with that. I can't spend the money on the W75, nice as it looks. Not sure if I want to go with a purely target single shot gun as I don't really shoot NRA Bullseye matches. Given that I mostly shoot USPSA, I think I should get a replica with a good (meaning accurate recreation) DA/SA trigger, so maybe a 92FS look-a-like. Then again, if I go with a single shot pump of some sort, I'm free of the need to buy CO2 cartridges-especially considering that CO2 cartridges can't be shipped to Alaska.
