Apart from a small number of 10/22's that came through with chatter marks in the bore near the muzzle about 6-7 years ago, most normal standard 10/22's can be made to shoot 1/2" groups at 50 metres without much hassle. I used to do a 10/22 tune-up package for $70 ( thread the muzzle, crisp 2.5lb trigger job, tune for subs, buffer pin, and barrel refit) and that produced the 1/2" groups every time. As they come out of the box they are hampered by a lousy trigger pull and poor barrel fitting (although the fit has improved a bit in the last 3 years). Once the barrel fit problem is cured then the receiver and the barrel become one solid unit. With a poor barrel fit and the scope mounted on the receiver, good accuracy is impossible to obtain.
