I have a Mini 583/300 blk. Switching to a new factory birch stock, I cut my groups in half while shooting off a bench at 100 yards. I also like the higher comb and the change in balance. The synthetic stock was too pliable in 100° heat. Also too front heavy. Credit card shims helped some but...

Thanks! That’s what I was looking for. Just ordered it.

I switched to a wood stock also. I’m looking at Talon Grips or non skid tape. Maybe skateboard tape to mimic the “checkering”” on the synthetic stock. If Ruger is listening, finger grooves in the wood have been historically used on many wood stocked firearms.

Light oil on the gun and grease in the action grooves should suffice. When reassembling the rifle, make sure the buffer bushing is inserted with the flat spot toward the barrel and the pointy end of the guide rod is inserted into the bushing and is closest to the barrel. Those symptoms...

I held one of those and took it home. 400 rounds later I'm still happy with my purchase. Great for an upgrade to an M-1 Carbine. I shoot 123gr to 150gr supers for range fun and HD and general pest control.

Mini 14 chambered in .277 Wolverine. ( 6.8 X 39 ) A simple barrel change.......?

You could call Ruger with the serial number. They probably could tell you how it was shipped.

I did the same thing. Works great! I used an orange Day-Glo from Testors after cleaning the front sight ramp with alcohol. Then, I did the same to the front ramp on my S & W Mod. 442.
