Very nice rifle...love that fluted barrel!
Roller blowbacks are notorious for having more kick than rifles operating differently but firing the full powered cartridge. Not sure about the shorter barrel rifle kicking less and kind of shocked to hear that your mini-14 kicks harder, is it setup really light?... my mini-30 doesn't kick as hard as my 91. Longer barrels will allow for higher velocity and inevitably more pressure on the action but, heavier barrels can counter this and make the difference negligible in my experience. I'm always looking to learn so school me if thats way off.
People have great things to say about this cheek riser from RTG...if I had a scope I'd be all over it but planning to shoot this gun in some modified offhand postion most of the time...if i decide to get a magnifier I may go with the weld.
