On two occasions, I bought Dan Wessons with accuracy not meeting my expectations. Replacing the barrels solved the problem both times. Both were used guns, and one barrel had been aftermarket ported.

I don't know if EWK is still making .22 bbl's, they may if you special order?

Note about the action...the short hammer throw increases the accuracy while shooting single action, but is a detriment to obtaining a smooth double action pull. In fact, my .22 came single action only.

That's a funny story... I bought that .22 from a trusted acquaintance, so I didn't try it out. It was at a gun show, so it had been wire tied. When I got home, snipped the wire tie, checked if it was loaded, and pulled the trigger. What the.....? A little dis-assembly revealed this was a factory configuration, and not "Bubba", ah, had to mentally apologize to the seller.
