The Mini will do just about anything you ask it to do.

Just remember to use bullets which weigh 55 grains or less. (the Mini-14 doesn't have the same barrel twist as the AR, so it doesn't stabilize the 62 grain bullets properly.) I actually recommend the Mini for folks who don't have 1500 bucks laying around for a rifle. You can buy 4 Minis for the price of a single AR and that's a bargain in my book.

Regards.

Lurker, how well would a 62 grain hold with a 223 custom 5-twist long barrel? What pattern should I get at 300 yards? Thanks.
