Ruger Mini 14 180 Series
The Ruger Mini 14 180 Series has a wood forestock and I think the stock is different as stated earlier. There isn't a mount made for the 180. I had a mint one last year and I sold it but I really like the wooden forestock, it reminds me of an M1 rifle. The twist is something like 1/14". If you are looking for accuracy I would buy anything above series 187. The barrel twist changed three times from series 180 to 187.
