AR15 vs Mini 14 - Can the Ruger keep up?
This video compares the reloading efficiency between an AR-15 platform rifle (BRN-180) and a Ruger Mini-14 through timed drills. The AR-15's bolt release mechanism offers a distinct advantage in speed during reloads compared to the Mini-14, which requires a manual manipulation to send the bolt forward after a magazine change. The drills highlight how these operational differences impact overall performance in timed shooting exercises.
