Great Rifle!

I have four. Two .223's that shoot M.O.A. I also have two 300 blk that shoot near M.O.A. The mini-14 is capable of good shot groups at 100 yards. At the range I have no trouble besting the AR's. Very reliable! no blow back in the face like another popular

Not accurate

I have the .223 and it's really fun to shoot but it's not accurate at all. I've tried 6 different factory loads in it with a good Nikon scope, then I bought a new Leupold for it and the best I can get is a 4" group at 100 yards. I don't have this pro

Brass ammo only

The Mini 30 in 7.62 does not like any ammo but brass cased. It's a well built firearm but will regularly jam and eventually lock up solid with any lacquered cased ammo. So the steel Com block stuff is out. I bought a windham weaponry AR platform from Cabe

Ruger mini 14

I love my mini 14 excellent gun won't buy an ar-15 after New York destroyed this gun this law doesn't change how the ar works . I would definitely recommend the mini 14 shoots great. added a Leupold 3-9-40 scope also

mini 30

Mini 30 light and easy to carry.Mine is really accurate.Put a leupold hog scope on it makes a great combination. Had the trigger worked on which was very inexpensive and within a hundred yards very very accurate. I would highly recommend.

Mini in .300 AAC

I purchased my new Mini-14 Tactical in .300 Blkout from Cabelas in June 2016.

Mini14 300 Blk

Yes, i love my Rugers and i love my new Mini 14 in 300 Blkout.

love the gun

I have the mini thirty and have no problems hitting the dogs or targets. Find it very accurate.

Good reliable gun

I've had my mini 14 for about 5 years. It's a 16" tactical model. Shoots accurately enough using surplus ammo, usually under 2" at 100 yards. Has fed everything I've put in it. I put white paint on the front sight which makes it stand out better

Fun to shoot, but extremely inaccurate

I liked the rifle for the fact that it is light weight and packs a lot of fire power. I topped mine with a 4x12 Nikon Pro Staff scope. I had the Mini 30 in 7.62x39. 7.62x39 is really a poor performing caliber, and that is my fault for buying a rifle chamb

Stainless mini-14

Once again a quality firearm from Ruger. The action of the mini-14 is one of the most reliable semiautomatic actions out there that you just can't beat it. It will feed any 223/5.56 round you put in it and go bang every time. I chose to go with this platf

YAY!

Quality in every way!! What a great rifle!!

Good close quarters hog gun

I bought one of these for my teenage son.

Love the Mini

Own the Tactical with folding stock and Ranch Mini 14. They are a tank in a .223/5.56 caliber rifle. Accurate enough for what they are intended for and very reliable. If you want the better accuracy of the mini look for at the Ranch rifle (longer barrel)

Ruger Mini 14

Very good overall rifle. Light, accurate, and personally, I did not have any issues with reliability. The only reason for not giving 5 stars is the little customizability of this rifle. A scope mount can be mounted, but aside from that, there is not much

Awesome Rifle

I purchased the Mini-14 tactical version about six months ago. Love the action on the bolt, and overall is just a really reliable gun. I have a few AR-15 rifles, and this is comparable to all of them Ruger really did a great job with these new mini-14's a

Great gun

I have the ranch model and put a intrafuse stock on it.This gun just shoots well. Reliable. I bought some after market 20rd mags. Took the mags apart and cleaned them and used a very light coating of a synthetic lube and they function flawlessly. Put a 3-

Coyote gun!

This is my primary firearm of choice when coyote hunting over a call in Michigan. Light, accurate, and with optics shooting several hundred yards is no problem. I typically utilize this gun when hunting in the woods/brush, tree lines and shoot coyotes/fox

Ruger Mini 14

This is the rifle I used many years ago on a municiple SWAT Team., I selected this weapon because it was reliable and accurate out to 100-150 yards or so.

my favourite

ruger love the name verry good gun never jamsout of all my 223 this is my favouriteevery one shoud have oneso much fun

One of my favorites

This is one of my favorite guns. I know a lot of people will complain about accuracy. If you fancy yourself as some kind of sniper and want a tack driver, you should buy a bolt action with a 28 inch heavy barrel. This is fun to shoot and is very reliable.

Fun to shoot!

I've never shot a rifle more fun to shoot than this one. Its no tack driver at 100 yards and out but its not designed for that. Perfect rifle for coyotes or any other varmits. Light recoil and relatively inexpensive to shoot...mine's never hungup and i've

Best Gun I Own

This gun is excellent. It meets every aspect of it's design criteria. It isn't exactly a marksman's weapon but it wasn't intended to be. It is built strong, operates smoothly, and is perfectly reliable. Have had several successful hog, jackrabbit, and dee

Great little rifle!... very quick and easy to find your target. Eats up everything I've fed it. The worst thing about this rifle is the rear sight... Ruger could do a lot better.... finger adjustable Ruger!

Excellent Gun, excellent service. Feeds reliably, no problems with any ammo I have tried yet.

Rifle operated flawlessly out of the box! It is simple, light and easy to use and maintain. Bud's service is always the best!

Great little rifle! It took about a week for the FFL processing before it shipped, but then I had it at my LGS within a couple of days. The transaction was easy, and I had my pick of several FFL's in my area for the transfer. The rifle itself is everythin

Great gun and I love it and would recommend it. Buds shipped it quickly. I plan to buy from buds again.

I was looking for a .223/5.56 rifle for awhile. I didn't want an AR platform because of the look, and I didn't want to have a weapon that is illegal in states where assault type rifles are deemed illegal. I wanted a more traditional look in a semiautomati

I bought it for the wife, she loves better than the AR_15 you don't need a scope GREAT WEAPON FUN TO SHOOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My new Ruger Mini-14 "Tactical" arrived quick and in perfect condition. The price was about 1/2 of other places I've looked. Bud's is my new favorite place to shop. Great selection, prices and excellent customer services.

Nice rifle. Out of the box with iron sites we were hitting a 10in steel gong at 125yds. The rifle cycled smooth and we experienced no jams. Fit and finish was good. The rifle came with 2 20rnd mags and pad lock. I'm very pleased with the rifle. Another fl

Reliable as other mini14s but i found the ranch model to be more accurate. I could only get 3moa out of this.

I recently purchased the Mini-14 from Buds Gun Shop and could not be happier with my purchase. The gun arrived in excellent condition. It shoots great and is a fun gun to have on the range. This was the first gun I have bought online and Buds Gun Shop mad

Another quick and painless deal from Bud's. The rifle went to the range and performed flawlessly for the entire time of shooting 80 rounds or so with it's newly added scope. I received two magazines, instead of the one ,which was an added bonus. Pleased w

Wow is all I can say about this rifle. I've wanted one for years and finally pulled the "trigger". Buds shipped the gun within 2 days of my order even though the order volume was through the roof at the time due to the terrorist attacks. Thumbs up for Bud

Ruger is one of my favorite manufactures and their Mini 14 is an awesome rifle! Fun to shoot, accurate and extremely reliable. I highly recommend this rifle! Buds was great as usual, got it to me in about 5 days without a scratch. This is at least my 10th

Good service from Bud's as usual. Revived at my FFL very quickly after final payment cleared. A direct clone of an M14; close but no cigar. A very good alternative to an AR platform. Well manufactured and performed very good at the range. After zeroing at

Luv the ruger mini 14. Its light, accurate and fun to shoot. Now I will buy the ruger mini 30.

Buds was great, but I am disappointed in the Ruger Mini 14. This is not my first Mini, I've had several over the years and they were all great guns. The fit and finish and attention to detail on this gun is poor. The front sling mount was only partially i

I bought this rifle through Bud's layaway program. Sale and delivery were as smooth as I've come to expect from Bud's great service! The rifle came with two 20 round mags which was a nice surprise. I took it to the range yesterday for the first time. I ha

This is my second Mini 14 and I love'em. I have sold all my AR15 and I went for classic traditional design. Works very well with all kind of ammos so far. I just put Springfield AA9126 M1A SCOUT SQUAD 308 SYN BL on a layaway reserve. Can't wait till get h

awsome rifle , light and accurate for haveing only a 16in barrell and very easy to clean. it took buds a little long to get me mine but i got it in great shape and at a great price . . . the thing that impresses me most about the rifle is the fact that i

I love this mini 14. Great piece. A tad bit heavy but made to last. I did get the ati stock for it also. I have run 160 rounds of nato 5.56 through it with no flaws. Buds does good.

GREAT GUN,AND AS ALWAYS GREAT SERVICE FROM BUDS.

I recently purchased this rifle from Buds. I had some problems with the shipping but Buds came through with immediate positive customer service to correct the issue. The weapon is high quality and well made. Ruger's increased quality control is evident in

I love this rifle, over the years I've owned a number of mini's and ARs and I carried an AR in war, but I got to say that for pure fun of shooting, this model mini is really nice to handle and it shoots dang good. With iron sights I popped the 300 meter m

The mini-14 is VERY NICE; shoots nice and easy to clean. RECOMMEND

Over all my experience with Buds was good, my mini 14 on the other hand was not. I took several weeks researching the Mini VS. AR's and decided to go with the mini for my personal reasons (to each his own). When I began firing the rifle I noticed that the

mini 14 tactical is a very much improved 14

Nice gun. Well built & accurate.Mounted a Nikon Prostaff 2 x 7,looks great. Great price & smooth transaction with Bud's.

Great rifle at an excellent price! Broke mine in with Silver Bear 62 gr hps and did not expect consistent and accurate results due to ammo but this rifle does really well with it. After three hundred rounds ro break in use Remmy 45 gr hps on coyotes out t
