And I have to rise in defense of the Mini-14. I never tried to target-sight one, but in my (admittedly) anecdotal experience hunting small game with one, I've never found accuracy to be a problem.
Of course, that was back in the days before I had to use a white cane. And before that unfortunate boating accident in which all my precious firearms and reloading gear were lost ...

I have experience with only 2 Mini 14 rifles, one was a cylinder bore while the other was quite accurate, about 1 MOA with commercial .223 ammo. If they used AR/M16 magazines, I might get another.
To: Lion Den Dan
A “cylinder bore?” I’ve only heard that term used in reference to unchoked shotgun barrels.

I swear, you are my lost at birth twin. I have a SS mini 14 as well, but it’s mine, not the wife’s.
I apparently didn’t marry as well as you did. LOL

My dad has one and I have shot that and an AR side by side many times. I come away each time liking my ARs more.
To: IronJack
That is the way the thing spread its shot, fairly uniform but very wide.
To: Hardastarboard
It actually used to be mine. Then she shot it. It’s ok, though. I got to build my AR! LOL

Bill’s dead a long time now. S&W also made some bad decisions with clinton. Have both Ruger and S&W and wouldn’t trade ‘em.

True. It was supposed to be on par with an AK47 Amercan style. Fills that role well.

Ruger Tactical model comes with an ATI AR type stock or a folder. You can get them aftermarket too, with rails for light, lasers...

Ruger mags are narrower. They would have to re-engineer the rifle receiver and then they wouldn’t have a market for their mags.

Your link shows 5.56 Nato. I believe that it was the target model that is.223.

Unless one is in the militia, a silenced, suppressed, scoped, 10/22 will be most useful when the SHTF.

The Mini 14 vs AR thingee is a lot like the Trump vs Cruz thingee. Really.
Shot my Mini, my AR and my AK today. Like them all.
I would vote for any of them above all candidates today.
