I have a very accurate .22WMR rifle and had others, but none have grouped 1 MOA consistently. Velocities were chronographed recently and found to be more consistent than many .22LR target rounds, yet I've noticed many wild shots that are more than 2" outside 100 yards "groups". I swear that bees fly straighter than some .22WMR ammo!
We're talking jacketed bullets that stray as much as 3" outside of the 100 yard "group" being shot, though most flyers are about 1-2" outside the group. I've viewed bullets flying in a corkscrew manner just before striking the target. Bullets often fly off the 8 1/2"x11" paper targets with 5 bulls that I use much of the time.
If anyone out there is working for an ammo manufacturing company, please figure out how to make accurate .22 WMR rounds! I'd pay a couple of bucks more a box if they would consistently shoot MOA at 100 yards.
