How does the Daisy 888 Co2 rifle stack up accuracy wise to the high priced PCP target rifles? Anyone know the consistancy and size of the 10 meter groups? Trigger any good on it?

We haven't done any extensive testing, but from what I have seen the 888's Lothar Walther barrel is certainly up to the task of 10M competition. In our quick test with 5 or 6 different pellets the 888 tested noticably better than the XS-40 Valiant. It didn't have a 1-hole group like a Anschutz or FWB though. For the price ($275) it is pretty good.
We don't spend much time pellet testing, or stress it very much with our group. The same Valiant that didn't group that well in our test just shot a 100 in the hands of one of our junior shooters, so group size isn't that important in my opinion.
