[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 1989513, member: 25419"] I had an AR, it shot great, but never "felt" right to me. Swapped for a 580-series Mini-14. "580" being the first digits of serial number since Ruger re-tooled. The 14 was not quite as accurate as the AR, but shot 1 1/2" at 100. Since I'm an M1A guy, the Ruger "felt" more like what I was used to. Swapped it a couple years ago, but will probably end up with another. Seems like a more robust action than the AR for sure. What I didn't like were the sights - rear sight was too big, front sight too wide. Replacing them required gunsmith skills out of my league. [/QUOTE]
