Follow up on my post and others
Respectfully, Ronbott, in my opinion the ESA is as accurate as the Anschutz (granted I have only shot the 1827 and 1427 older models). I disagree about your comments on the accuracy though, when I miss, it is due to myself not due to the rifle. This season I have shot in temperatures ranging from 0 ...

Better Option
If you have access to a rimfire range, a better choice for practice is to get a lower cost (see other Biathlon Topics) biathlon rifle, that way you are practicing with the same rifle you are competing with.
