Where are you using the middle finger?
On the second note?
If so, there's no problem that I see there. :-)
As long as it's comfortable for you...

I was going to ask a question about this but then i saw this thread and decided to add on

when sweeping minor arpeggioes like this is it common to not use your ring finger?

i found myself doing this when practicing, and the thought of it didnt seem natural although I am not having any problems with it.

and out of curiosity what fingers do you use for this?

When you hear something that you really like, take guitar and kill the beast.

Sorry for the late answer!
I would use the ring finger, but I don't see anything wrong using the middle finger. :-)
Whatever feels right to you! :-)
That's the advantage of our instrument. The technique of modern guitar is fairly new and there are not as much set rules as for fingering as for violin for example. :-)
