Mini-14 "Target" - Ruger Forum
Sep 16, 2014 · Keep in mind the big disadvantage is that unlike other models of the Mini 14, the target model can only shoot 223 ammo. So no using 556 as well, as is the case with the regular rifle.

Mini 14 Target - Ruger Forum
Nov 9, 2017 · The target model is chambered in .223 remington so no 5.56 ammo versus the other mini's that are chambered in 5.56.

Difference Between the mini-14 Ranch and regular - Ruger Forum
Mar 3, 2012 · The main difference is the receivers. The Mini-14 has a rear sight that resembles the sight found on an M1 Garand or M14 and no easy way to mount a scope without additional hardware.

Mini 14: 5.56 Harmful or not - Ruger Forum
Oct 13, 2009 · All other Mini-14s will shoot 5.56 NATO ammo without damaging the gun. The leade in the throat of the chamber is typically 3 degrees in most 223 Rem bolt rifles and works much like a forcing cone. In all Mini-14s except the Target Mini, the leade is 5 degrees and a bit deeper, much like AR-15/M-16s.
