Keith, it so happens I have a Tikka Heavy Barrel varmint gun in .222 Remington. I managed to get it on sale a number of years ago. It replaced a Browning heavy barrel in .223. If anything I think the Browning may have been a little more accurate. I also have a CZ .22 LR (M452). It is not as accurate as most suggest theirs are. It tends to throw occasional flyers, however, I have never tried high end ammo in it so don't know if this would clear up that problem.

Contact me if you want more details. I would have replied last night but this useless system would not let me in. It kept telling me to refresh the webpage. Maybe one day the people who operate the campfire will rectify the problems.

Jim
