Has anyone tried to put a 10/22 aftermarket heavy barrel on a 77/22?

Not me, but it does sound interesting. I had a look at an exploded view of a 10/22 and the barrel's not screwed in. The one place I looked didn't have an exploded view of a 77/22. I'd ask Ruger or one of the smithy's that accurizes 10/22's.

The 10/22 barrel will not fit on a 77/22 receiver. A 77/22 barrel can be shimmed and doctored to fit a 10/22 but not the other way around unless your a good machinist and want to recut everything and after all that what would be the point. Look at the barrels side by side and you will see what I'm talking about.
