The Mossberg Patriot combines the most-desired features from previous Mossberg centerfire rifles in a re- engineered platform with streamlined bolt handle, redesigned bolt knob and classic, hunting-style stock. Now Mossberg is pleased to announce the addition of the Patriot bolt-action rifle featuring a Kryptek Highlander camo stock with a matte blue metal finish.
The Patriot series is based on Mossberg’s proven twin-lug, push-feed machined-steel action which is fed from a lightweight polymer, flush box magazine with 5-round total capacity. The button-rifled, standard contour, free-floating 22-inch barrels are constructed of carbon steel and feature straight- edge fluting and recessed crowns. Exposed metalwork has a Matte Blue finish. Every Patriot rifle also features Mossberg’s patented LBA™ (Lightning Bolt Action™) Adjustable Trigger System for consistent shot placement and is user- adjustable from 2 to 7 pounds. Other standard features include distinctive, spiral-fluted bolts; receiver-mounted, weaver-style scope bases for ease of adding optics; and sling swivel studs.
I put a Nikon Prostaff 3-9 40mm scope on this rifle. Took it to the range the first day I recieved it and it exceeded all expectations. It looked great and shot even better. Once I got it zeroed my groups were all within 1 MOA or better. I wasn’t even using premium ammunition. Overall great gun, very glad I bought it.
