My old 1973 Marlin 336 30/30 is a tack driver at 100 yards compared to my Mini-14. The Mini is now awaiting a new owner to come through with "the money", and part will go for a re-blue on the Marlin, and part will buy a friend's .270 Rem 700. The Mini was "fun", if you like spray and pray, but I like to punch holes in things in certain places when I point at them. The Mini just can't do that, and considering the physics behind the design I would assume that few, if any of the Mini series guns can consistantly hit POA.

I'm also not a big fan of .223 for anything other than varmint and paper shooting.
