I got lucky on my 77/22 .22WMR, but have had 1 in .22LR that also performed poorly....i put a Green Mountain barrel on the .22lr & turned it into a .17mach2, which shoots well.

My CZ and Cooper .22mags are more accurate, but i carry the Ruger more than those, for me the .22WMR gets used as a general purpose "never know what might need shot at" gun when trail riding. average groups at 50 with Winchester JHP's:
