77/22s

I know lots of people complain about them. Here are a couple groups from my .22WMR and one from my .22LR. The .22 WMR is an RSM and pretty much shoots everything well, but these are the two premium offerings out there, one a Remington 33 grain Accutip and the other a Hornady 30 grain VMax. I pulled the second shot. The .22 LR is a VBBZ and it will shoot most of the premium ammo well, I just tried the Federal 922A Match for the first time today. The first 3 shots went into one hole, the fourth opened it up and I pulled the fifth. At $10 a box of 50 I probably won't be shooting it much but it was worth trying. The only modification to the rifles is a Timney trigger. All are at 50 yards.

I used to use a friends 77/22 to shoot in 22 cal turkey shoots. So accurate that I won a bunch with it. His had the open sights, and mine has the scope only option. The only serious competition I'd have was a young girl who shot a browning on her High School shooting team.
Mine is a tack driver as well. I've never had accuracy issues with mine. Looks like you have good ones as well.
