Interesting accuracy test! I would guess that 99.9% of shooters cannot shoot 5" groups at 100 offhand with a 1/2 minute gun much less a "clunker" Mini-14. It would be interesting to see how well it does from the bench.
FWIW- I have an early one that has been bedded and the trigger done that shoots very well, but most "current" gunsmiths are afraid of them.
Good shooting- and 5" offhand at 100 is good shooting!
