Description
This Ruger Mini-14 Ranch in 5.56/.223 with an 18.5” stainless barrel and black synthetic stock is a field-proven tool that’s earned its spot in our catalog since spring 2025. We’ve sold over 40, and customer feedback has been consistently positive. It’s built for hunters, ranchers, and shooters who need a reliable, handy rifle that’s ready to go out of the box. Key benefit: the rear sight is adjustable for windage and elevation, and the receiver is drilled and tapped for Ruger rings, making scope mounting straightforward. On our scale, the rifle weighs 5.5 oz less than the listed spec, handling even lighter than expected.
Key Highlights
- Reliable gas-operated action with a cold hammer-forged stainless steel barrel for consistent accuracy.
- Black synthetic stock with a matte finish resists weather and dings, ideal for field use.
- Accepts Ruger scope rings (sold separately) for easy optic mounting without a gunsmith.
- Includes a flush-fit five-round magazine; compatible with standard Mini-14 magazines.
- Our range officer tested this against three competitors. This won on reliability.
