I have a new series mini 14 tactical model that shoots well. 1.5" groups are the norm for my rifle. I think the barrels are heavier, the machining tolerances are tighter which has increased their overall accuracy. I have a DPMS AR as well and they both shoot about the same as fas as accuracy goes. I have had mini 14's in the past, the older moldels as well, and one difference in Them I can tell you is the price. It seems as though I paid around $400 dollars new for my older mini, and the new series I purchased about a year ago was $700.00.
