Never attempt to use caliber .223 ammunition in Ruger Mini Thirty rifles, as it
will not chamber correctly and will “jam” the action.These smaller cases will
split upon firing in the larger Mini Thirty chamber, resulting in the release of
hot powder gases into the action and possible personal injury or damage to the
rifle. As with any firearm, always wear safety shooting glasses and adequate
hearing protection.

MINI THIRTY magazines are identified by having only one
vertical crease in the side of the magazine versus three vertical creases in the
Ruger Mini-14 magazine. The bottom of the Mini Thirty magazine is more
tapered than the generally rectangular bottom of the Mini-14 magazine, and the
follower, visible from the top of the magazine, is distinctly more pointed on the
Mini Thirty (see illustrations below). DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE MINI-14
MAGAZINES IN RUGER MINI THIRTY RIFLES.
