This is anecdotal.

Incorrect, this has nothing to do with my "cognizance" (btw wtf?) From the manual, the only guarantee offered by Norinco for the JW15A is (and I quote) "Dispersion diameter for 4 round less than 70mm at range of 50m" please see here for more detail: download/file.php?id=5433
No disrespect mate, but you have to take it on a case-by-case basis; the accuracy of all JW15As will fall somewhere on a bell-curve spectrum of "shooters" right through to "lemons" (that probably group close to the 70mm mark); that's a fact. It's not as simply as stating "it should shoot much better than that". Unless you somehow have actual data pertaining the mean accuracy of a very LARGE sample size of JW15As? When I say LARGE, I mean a lot more than just your own personal experience + a few here-says on a gun forum.
In saying that, there is still hope OP. A lot can be done to improve your groups like free-floating and/or shimming the barrel. Bedding. Trigger job. etc. You will be able to shrink your groups with some acurization work.

Do you mean remove the barreled action from the stock and clean both surfaces plus the magwell etc?

Remove grease from the stock where it made contact with the metal. ditto the inside of the mag.

That answers one question.
Next. What are you groups like with a rifle of known reliable accuracy?

As for the points raised by everyone, I'm not a novice but not an expert either. Last month I shot my. 223 off the bipod at 100m and put 5 rounds in 18mm centre to centre. So I don't think it all me in this case.
