First Mini-14?

I found you guys by accident. THIS IS GREAT!!! I have learned a lot in just a couple of weeks. What Mini should be my first? I have reloaded for many years, mostly revolver calibers. I own a couple of Ruger 10-22T's Mostly for close in gopher blasting with Stingers. (Under 100 yards) but I want more power. (Is that bad?:) I can't decide. HELP ME!!!
P.S.
The way the geniuses keep legislating away our rights I decided to purchase a Mini-14 now while they are still available. The idea of some idiot eliminating a whole class of guns with a stroke of a pen makes me ill.

Hi .41Dude and welcome! :)

If you are buying new, you really have 6 choices. You can get a standard mini or ranch, in blued steel or stainless, with a wood or synthetic stock. Personally I bought the stainless all weather ranch rifle. I like the stainless because of its increased durability, and with the ranch I have the option of adding a scope.

I can't think of any reason why to get blued, other than cost. Maybe someone will fill in the blanks for me, I left plenty of them, hehe.
