I guess we got lucky. Have an early generation Mini-14. Left handed girl friend shoots it mostly and does so regularly at machine gun shoots. She likes it much better than the AR-15 or M-16 rifles due to ejection patterns. The Mini-14 seems to be more lefty friendly than the AR guns.
We don't shoot bullseye type targets that often but she regularly pops reactive targets, 1 1/2 diameter dynamite sticks, at 300 yards with iron sights. Not with every shot but often enough to get noticed.
She doesn't have any issues with accuracy. Me, not so good. Your mileage may vary as well.
Gun has also been exceptionally reliable. Any issue has always been traced to poor quality aftermarket magazines. .
