Anyone try a Norinco JW-23? They are chambered in .22WMR, bolt action repeater. They accurate?

Also, .22 LR was worth around $4 for a brick of 50, and bulk box $30 for 525 at canadian tire last weekend.
I realize WMR is more, but any one have any numbers for prices?



Found some JW-23's on sale, and have thrown around the idea of getting a WMR simply as a higher powered rodent gun. But If they are not accurate, I would be better off just using a Long Rifle.
 
The best price I have seen on .22WMR is at places like wholesale sports at about $12/50, I think Crappy Tire has them for $15.00/50. If you look around, you can probably find .22LR for around $20.00/500. So obviously the .22LR is almost 10x cheaper, but if you have a need for the increased power of the WMR, count on about $120.00 a brick if you are lucky. Sorry that I don't have any experience with the rifle you were asking about.
