mini 14 accu-strut

[travecier]

Recently got accu-strut for my mini-14 old stainless not the new one with thicker barrel, I was about to give up on this gun and sale it but now I am In-love with it. It's unreal how well the accu-strut works.

How many rounds have you put thru it with this set up? What is the difference in group size before and after? How much was it and how is it installed?

It looks good.

I have shoot about 600 rounds since I got the acc-strut, before my groups were like 6" if you could even call them groups and I would have flyers. Now at 100 yards I get 2"-2 1/2" groups and I am not the best shoot. before I couldn't sight my optics in at a indoor range because it was allover now I can shoot a 1/2-1" at the range. Cheap steel ammo!

They coast 80-100 accu-strut is not the only brand of strut. Very easy to install many YouTube videos on this

I've just ordered a Accu-Strut for my pencil thin Mini-14, that I bought new in the early 90's. Out of a cold clean barrel it will shoot the first 3 into a 3" group at 100 yards, however, after that the rest of the rounds go into orbit (6-8" groups if you want to say that) with several of the rounds not touching paper. Thought at first it might be the scope, so after several scope changes still no better results. It has I believe 1/9 twist, and I did a trigger job so the trigger breaks at just a tad over 3#s, and bedded it in a Choate Stock with a cheek piece. It seems to like the Hornady 52 grn. AMax boat tail using IMR4198 powder with Federal Bench Rest Primers. I certainly hope this will improve the accuracy of this Safe Queen. If it does I'll get some photos of the before and after up here (targets and rifle)
