Welcome to the forum there Slick. I lived in SC for 6 months. I went to one of the top shooting schools in the country in a beautiful place called Paris Island. They taught me how to shoot 200 to 500 yds, with Peep sights. The school was called USMC. However the mini-14 isn't an M-14, but still we can shoot reasonably well with a little "tuning" on the mini, and a little "honing" on our shooting skills. We didn't have a bench rest, bipods, or even a sand bag, the Number 1 piece of accuracy equipment was a nylon sling, adjusted to hold our rifle, and arms tight in offhand, knealing, sitting, and prone positions. Now days my eyes arn't as good as they used to be so I use a scope, and steady, with a bench rest for accuracy work, or a bipod, or lean against a tree, for field use.
