Maybe give the rifle a good cleaning and if no better try a different brand of ammo. CCI mini mag is good accurate hunting ammo, if you can find them right now

I personally never have problems getting inside of 30 yards to shoot squirrels. A rifle doesn't need to shoot sub 1" at 50 yards to be an acceptable critter gitter.
