Just picked up a standard Mini-14 Ranch rifle with the standard wood stock, brand new. Before all of you AR lovers start in ....I know....I know....I know...I admit all of those things. ARs are more accurate, ARs are easier to work on, ARs have proven themselves in battle, ARs hold their value better...OK. Fine. but I don't like them. I cut my teeth on M-14s.
Getting to my question, what is Ruger's twist rate for that barrel? It shoots accurately with the 62gr green tipped NATO ammo I have tried. (Three inches at 100 yards with my old eyes and the iron sights it came with) so I assume it is at least 1-10 or faster. I have scoured the manual and my reference library and I can find no mention of it. Help me out, you Ruger Guys.
