Just did my taxes, and it turns out I paid into AZ coffers far more than I should have. My refurnd will be sufficient to buy another gun, so I first thought I'd get a Sig P938. My LGS has a few in stock, and I really like the P238; the 9mm P938 is only about 1/4" bigger.
But then I noticed that the Big 5 here in town has a couple of Ruger Mini-14 Ranch rifles in stock. It's the five-shot model, but that's easily changed, and I don't currently have anything in .223 (though I do have reloading dies).
What is the Mini-14 good for that my .243 can't do better? Yes, I know the auto will shoot faster than the BLR, but is there anything in particular that the .223 is really good for? Would it, for instance, be a better choice for hunting coyotes?
