Interesting the JW15 doesn't shoot?? There may well be a simple fix as they are usually pretty good.

Does shoot, just in some quite big groups (10-15cm at 25 metres)

That's terrible! Are you using it with a suppressor?

Have you tried grouping without the suppressor? If not, might be worth a go.

I had one that shot pretty well then suddenly didnt.
It was a decades old aluminium thread muzzle forward model. Must have come loose in the threads. No obvious baffle strike. Got a new MAE suppressor ( stainless ) and straight away it was back to shooting well. No rethreading crowning bedding scoping or anything. Just the suppressor had done its dash.

So terrible it's almost certainly not the rifle. Baffle striking in a suppressor, scope mounts are loose as a goose, or scope internals are rooted.
