A WISH of mine is that the Mini-14 would be an accurate and reliable rifle. Then I might buy one.

My EXPERIENCE with them is to the contrary, at least in the accuracy department. Big Brother has 2 of the things, both older models. They are fun to shoot in dog ton but total wast of ammo as I don't know that I EVER hit what I was aiming at.

The newer ones are supposedly better in the accuracy department but reports I've heard and read vary. Until I see proof of accuracy I can't justify laying good money down for one. Went with an AR instead, no regrets.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
