I've got the latest Ranch Rifle version of the Mini-14 that is drilled and tapped for the Weaver-style adapter rail that bridges the action. By removing that, I have access to the factory Ruger scope mount grooves, so I can use either style of optic--either a traditional scope in the proprietary Ruger rings and mounts, or some sort of red dot sight mounted to the Weaver style adapter rail. I'm currently using a Leupold VX II 3-9 x 40mm scope in the Ruger mounts, but would like something lighter and trimmer. So...
Has anyone tried the little 1-4 x 20mm Leupold "HogPlex" scope on the Mini-14? How do you like it?
What about a red dot? Has anyone tried the RMR on a Mini with the Weaver adapter rail? Anyone using a red dot sight mounted in this fashion, and if so, what kind and how do you like it?
I'm interested to hear anyone's opinion of optics for the Mini, provided they don't tell me I should have bought an AR. I didn't and I won't.
