I was stating it as fact. The mini 14 isn't the precision weapon the 16 is. The rifling and sights just aren't as robust. However, it is accurate enough out to 300m to be effective.

As for precision, I have a Savage "beanfield" rifle <heavy barrel> in .300 Wing Mag, alas the weapon has better ability for accuracy than I can be accurate, but I can still put most rounds on target at 500m with my garand.

Speaking of which, I need to go to the range, its been far to long
