My thoughts on the mini after owning a few, hmm. I currently have a newer 581 series with the short heavy barrel. Before chasing load development, I would do a few proven mods that will make the mini a much tighter shooter. I have done all of these myself. You can choose to do these or pay a gunsmith to do. I would do a baseline test with XM193 ammo before and after so you can judge the results. Because the mini can be hard to diagnose.
1. Trigger job
2. Barrel stabilizer
3. Make sure the gas block is square and evenly torqued
4. Bed the receiver for side to side fit.
Now do your load development.
