John MH Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 It will be a challenge but from what I've heard it will be a very tall order to get one to shoot accurately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn 2-3 moa was always more typical-the odd one might be a little better,and there are some barrel stabilisers that might help-but unless you actually get to shoot one that is consistently better,I fear that's about what they do. Sustained fire don't help either.They are not expensive,though...a correlation? And quite reliable in operation,but moa accurate ...no.Other straight pulls can be sub moa,but are considerably more expensive.... Gbal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few have claimed an accustrut helped a little-but not enough.Nothing seems to except one thing: Buy a sheep ranch in Montana Keep the mini14 in the pick up truck Mabe you will hit a fast running coyote This is of course with the semi auto version.The rifle is short and handy,fast handling, good fire power,reliable and can take a bump or two in the truck,and it is cheap.It's even called Ranch Rifle.

gazzar15 Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Well yes actually...........I had a Mini 30 whilst my shooting buddy had a 223 Mini14 both ended up shooting Moa or better. His being the more accurate of the 2. There is a company in the States called Accuracy systems that does accurising and it is relatively easy for an engineer to do. It involves bolting the action into the stock stiffening the barrel and some other bits. Pete Moore did an article in Shooting Sports a couple of years ago. Buy it they are good fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryh Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Glenn, What do you want it for? They have never been regarded as an accurate rifle but if you want to just blast away for fun then do so, but I'm afraid Baldies post was accurate - you are going to spend money polishing a turd, but it could be fun trying T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
