Default RE: 2005 ruger mini-14 any better?

I do know they have shipped but haven't looked for one yet.

I just still don't understand why people always seem to think that these carbines are supposd to be some super accurate MOA gun. Their not intended to be tack-drivers. They're designed and built for medium or closer ranges for medium or smaller game. they only have to be "minute-of vitals zone". Perhaps some see them and think about their similarly looking military counterpart and expect the higher levels of accuracy, don't know. I think more think they're supposed to rival the AR models and that style firearm. i also expect some that continually complain about this don't bother trying differnt loads to see what that particualr gun prefers. Like all guns, each may have it's "pet" load. What do I know though...

Anyways...The one report I've read the shooter did say that tolerances appeared better but hadn't done any precise shooting for measured groups.
