First hand experience on accuracy? Operation?

I've got a stainless Mini-14; very picky about its ammo. With ammo it
likes it's quite reliable; with ammo it doesn't it might as well be a
single-shot (pull trigger, clear jam, pull trigger, clear jam....).
Unfortunately, it's been long enough since I took it out that I don't
remember which works and which doesn't. Barrel heating moves the point
of impact noticeably even with just a five-shot string. Waiting for the
barrel to cool between shots (see single-shot note above) gives
something like a 3" spread at 100 yds.
