  1. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    Hey all! Just bought my first purchased rifle, a Mini 14 stainless ranch! (I was issued a SIG 550 but that's sitting with my brother in the EU, and won't be joining me in CO) I've been doing some reading and i'm looking at making a few additions.\ -Tech-Sights Mini 200 -Accu-strut -Ultimak...
  2. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    "Tricked out" means everything you can do yourself to increase the accuracy of a Mini-14 short of rebarreling: torquing gas block screws, glass bedding the action & forend, shimming the action, installing a .045 gas bushing, recoil buffer on the rear, Accu-Strut (the long one), fire lapping the...
  3. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    The 16" tapered barrel tactical will string upwards 6" @50 yds in about 15 shots firing about 1 round per second. It's been cryo treated and still strings. I'm thinking the Mo-Rod with two clamps might stabilize better but the Accu-Strut Socom looks better. The gas block will get dimpled. Other...

  5. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    Not sure if this has been answered on here or not, but could not find a definitive answer. I have a mini thirty tactical (582 series) and am looking into an accu-strut or mo-rod. From my research I think I am limited to a 4" mo-rod. Anyone know if there are other options or is my only choice...
  6. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    I got a mini 14 tactical 582 series short-barrel 16-1/8 and I love it. I have been reading a lot about the barrel struts in the market and so far there are 3 in the market... The Har-bar: $159 The Accu-strut SOCOM: $79 The Mo-Rod: $87 I have read good...
  7. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    I THINK I have my 582 series SS Ranch tricked out. Mods made so far: --home "trigger job" (much lighter than original) --.045 gas bushing (brass flies 10-12ft between 1 & 2 o'clock) --1911 rear recoil bushing --Accu-Strut --Filed front of op-rod to have more even contact with the gas block...
  8. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    Just got back from the range doing some load developement. The newer tapered barrel on this gun is a definite improvement on the prior models. I've run some loads through it from the bench and yes, it is finicky as to which loads shoot well but I have found it is much more consistant now that I...
  9. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    I just ordered a Accu-Strut for my new 581 Mini 14, after reading lots of positive things about them. It was in stock and shipped today, will have it in two days. Any tips for installing the strut? Do I need a torque wrench, or is hand tightening the screws as tight as they go fine? Also for...
  10. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    Finally finished my Mini-14 with the modifications I want. This is a wood and blue 580 series with the “skinny” barrel. I like wood and blue steel. I’m never taking this into combat or going to Camp Perry with it. Nor will I ever use it to score “Boone and Crocket” points. This is a...
  11. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    Ok so I have seen them on a few mini's. My question is do they really work? Are they worth the money. I have a 186 series. So I have that real thin barrel. Any opinions? Thanks for the help before hand.
  12. Tips and Tricks
    Hi: I'm sure someone out there has tried to mount their Harris Bipod to the Accu-Strut and eliminate the Harris adaptor. Does that affect the effectiveness of the strut? (1) Would a UTG rail adaptor work? (2) Are there photos I might be able to see? Thanks Mike 3-4
  13. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    So I goy my brand new mini-14 ranch rifle and was getting 3"-5" groups at 100 yards with wolf and silver bear ammo (no sling, sitting uding a 2x4 as a muzzle rest). So then I put an accu-strut on it and get 2"-4" groups with the silver bear. After that I picked up one box Remington UMC from wal...
  14. Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30
    I had a bipod that clamps on to the barrel. I just installed an Accu-strut and the bipod will still fit, either clamped to the barrel or to the Accu-strut itself. However, will having a bipod attached to either the barrel or to the Accu-strut have a negative affect on accuracy, or keep the...
