Ruger Mini Magazine Question

[conor_90]

A couple questions for the owners of these rifles

Are the magazines double stack?

If so does the 223/556 magazine fit in the 7.62x39 magwell?


Thanks

Mags are double stack, and oddly enough the 223 mag fits in the Mini-30.

Curious what for?

Ruger is releasing a 7.62x39 American ranch takes mini 30 mags. I have been toying with the idea of a bolt action 50 beowulf on a mini mauser for a while now. Will be a heinous money pit but the heart wants what the heart wants.

Only thing that might handicap it is capacity...

Thanks for your reply

Cool project. There's a lower cost alternative that might be worth considering, the 450 Bushmaster Ranch Rifle listed at $789.99 -
