    1-1.5 MOA with my Dads new stainless. Such a fun rifle.

    1 - 1.5 is acceptable to me. I doubt my 18" barreled AR is any better.

    If you love your freedom, thank a veteran. If you love to party, thank the Beastie Boys. They fought for that right.

    Even @ 4-5" spread that's still COM on a realistic object.

    Yes that is funny, but also true, I had a Stainless one in the mid 80?s and that would describe it perfectly.

    Circa 1993 bought a Mini14 ranch for $450. It shot about 1.5-2 MOA with optics. Same price as a Bushy AR-15 back then. Any mag would work in it since Ruger would not make high capacity for it back then. Shots would vertically string after a few quick rounds. Crime Bill Ban craze in 1994, sold it for $650 with cheap scope after putting 1000 rounds through it.

    Anyone else remember buying South African PMP Denel ammo in 223 with the impala on the box? 500 rounds boxed for $69. I must have bought and shot at least 10 cases of that stuff. Never a weak load or misfire. Brass was better than PMC.

    Clinton Banned the importation of the PMP ammo, now the Russians now get cheap ammo from PMP Denel.
    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    It's a fantastic rifle. Does anyone know how to attach photos over the tiny limit? I have a couple photos of some tight groups I shot back to back with the Mini

    You can use ?Tap a Talk? to attach larger photos.
