Some folks refer to the .223 as a "poodle shooter." I have never had the need to shoot any human with anything, but I have had to shoot feral dogs with both the .223 FMJ and the .30-06 FMJ. The damage is identical between both rounds.

As far as the Mini-14 goes, I rate it superior to the AR-15 in all ways. Proven Garand design, all steel parts, and best of all the sights are where they ought to be on a rifle, and not three inches in the air on a stupid "handle." Stupid because (A) if you are carrying a gun you ought to carry it in a ready position, and (B) the higher sights make you stick your head up too far to shoot!

You did good with a Mini-14.

Are you nuts???? In ALL ways?? Yeah...please tell our military...they've made a terrible mistake in their weapons choices the past 30 years...I guess you've never fired an AR. Not to put the mini down...how do you equate....nevermind. (Poor man's AR)...nuff said.
