The Ruger Mini-14 Ranch is a semi-automatic Modern Sporting Rifle chambered for 5.56 NATO / .223 Rem that pairs contemporary reliability with a traditional Garand-style action. It ships with a cold hammer-forged 18.50-inch stainless barrel and a black synthetic stock, and is offered with a matte stainless finish. For a capable optic under $1,000 that complements this platform, consider a Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 for general use and medium-range precision.
