Ruger Mini-Thirty Tactical | 7.62×39 | 16.12″

The Ruger Mini-Thirty Tactical is a semi-automatic rifle built on Ruger’s Mini-14 platform configured for 7.62×39 ammunition. It combines a cold hammer-forged 16.12 inch stainless steel barrel, integral scope mounts, and a black synthetic fixed stock for robust, weather-resistant service. This model ships with two 20-round magazines, a Picatinny rail, and scope rings for immediate optics mounting.

For optics, this rifle pairs well with a variable low-power optic such as the Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32, which stays well under $1,000 and matches the Mini-Thirty’s short- to medium-range performance profile. Recommended applications include short- to medium-range deer hunting and general range/practical shooting.
