If you insist on match accuracy at 500 yards from a rifle that was never designed or intended for such use, then the Mini-14 is not for you.
It's perfectly good at what it is made for, a fast handling, short rifle in semi-auto, chambered in .223. So is the AR-15. If you want to hang a bunch of tacticool stuff off of your rifle, you can go just as nuts with the Mini-14 as you can with the AR platform.
I'll use my semi-auto .223s for what they're good for, and save the other scenarios for the big 7.62.
