I would hope so. On the mini I’ve destroyed a Bushnell (decades ago) and had good luck with a newer Redfield 2-7. The Bushnell rattled like a castanet and the reticle was floating around in circles. Needless to say, it was truly barn door (in)accurate with that scope. FWIW, the scope previously was on a bolt action .30-06 with no issues. I had a Weaver K-2.5 on a mini for several hundred rounds with no problem. That scope then went to a 12 gauge slug gun for several hundred more and now resides on a .30-30, where it still works fine.

The PA works well. Since it can be focused like a scope, no glasses are needed. Works without batteries. Eye relief isn't unlimited, but plenty, and with both my eyes open it lines up very quickly. Lights up if needed. The center is a fine chevron, surrounded by a pretty thick donut, which can be used for ranging and holding at 200 and 300. Would prefer something simpler, but of all the ones I checked, this one's the best. Hope it holds up, but have other stuff waiting in line if it crashes. Pappy, Which PA optic did you put on your Mini? I like the idea of a diopter focus.

The 1x Cyclops. Got the brown one because the black is perennially unobtanium, on Amazon anyway. Originally got it for my crossbow, but found out the scope is the best choice.

I snagged a nice little SA-22 for $450 the other day.
Not bad. Belgian or Nipponese? One of those is on my list, though I'm really liking my 10/22 CSC lately.

The AR is nothing much until you get a drop in trigger job. 8 lbs, creepy as hell about 1/2" of overtravel. Once you fix that tho, it's a pretty damned fine rifle. Only longarm I bother to own or probably ever will. To me, a rifle is a shtf gun, I do everything else with pistols.

I’ve got a Burris FFIII mounted on an ultimak rail on my 580 model mini, it has the newer .625” tapered barrel, not the older “pencil” barrel. So far it is a nice combination. It will shoot 2” all day long. I put in a .045 gas port and have 1911 buffers fore and aft. I bedded it too. It’s a nice rifle for what I expect out of it.
