Are there any different rear sight option for the 580 series Mini 14 Ranch rifle.
When I shot the rifle at 50 yds last eve, it's almost impossible for me to pick up the rear sight..
I moved my head closer and farther away from the rear sight but it didn't really help.
Seemed the aperture was too big and possibly the overall diameter could have been a little bigger.
Suggestions?

I just realized my 582 series Mini has a smaller OD aperture(about .220) than my NRA series Mini(about .320)
I believe the ID is about the same.
I'll call Ruger and see if they have something.

This!


I think you can specify a larger opening on the sight.
I've got one of their sights and they blow the original rear sight out of the water.

It's not really the opening size that is bothering me it is the lack of overall size of the aperture.
I can't quite pick up the rear sight because it is too small.
Apparently Ruger makes at least 2 different OD with same size aperture openings.

I replaced my factory rear sight with one from Tech Sights after it flew off the rifle the second time I had it at the range. Significant improvement.
