Failure rate was 4%-5% with the CMMGs, which doesn't sound too bad until you take into account that the failure rate with the S&W was .1%.

The CMMGs also couldn't group better than a 8.5"x11" zero target at 50yards. Lots of different people shot them with similar results.
As noted, this is the complete opposite of my experience with a CMMG upper (and that of most posted reviews).

1"-1.5" groups at 50 yards is the norm, not the exception. Any failures I've had (maybe 1 round out or 15-20 mags at worst) have been attributable to cheap bulk ammo (rounds that wouldn't fire after multiple firing pin strikes).

I have to wonder is you are talking about actual CMMG .22LR dedicated uppers or the CMMG drop-in bolt conversion unit used in a 5.56mm upper.
