These have been catching my eye around town.
.223/5.56 and all sorts of mag lengths.
From reviews by nameless internet warriors it sounds like they are all good. There was a mention of the later models, 2008- , having a bull barrel that showed increase accuracy.
Any personal experience on this Ranch Rifle?
There was a short run of a carbine in 44 mag called a Deerfield.
Used for a vanilla model looks like $575-600. Fancy up to $800 but Davidson's has them for about $725 new. Ruger Mini-14, my current obsession
